The Navigation System (NS) Private Aid to Navigation program (PATON) encourages the scheduled verification of every Private Aid to Navigation by AV qualified Auxiliarists during time periods when these aids are established, and the submission of professionally-prepared accurate on-line verification reports to the Coast Guard.
Guidelines for the Private Aid - PATON Verification program.
The emphasis of the AV program is on prevention, accuracy, credibility, professionalism and service to the Coast Guard. Photo editor free for mac. As NS District Staff Officers, our focus is directed toward building the recognition of each Auxiliary AV-Aid Verifier as a highly competent observer and reporter in the eyes of the Coast Guard. District specific guidelines and a National AV/PQS for qualifying as an Aid Verifier have been established on the First Northern NS Web Site. These guidelines include the taking and reporting of fixes and depths, the pre-underway and on-scene evaluation of the electronic equipment being used, high quality on-scene observations, and professional on-line verification report preparation. Fixes are taken with GPS sets using WAAS; depths are corrected to the charted vertical datum; physical measurements, photographs, and the validation of observations to the Light List, the Coast Pilot and the applicable NOAA Nautical Chart are included in the prescribed PATON verification process.
