Navigational Aid

A navigational aid is a device or system that helps guide ships and aircraft safely from one point to another. These aids include tools like lighthouses, buoys, radio beacons, and electronic systems such as GPS. They provide vital information about location, direction, and nearby hazards, allowing navigators to determine their position accurately and steer safely through busy or unfamiliar waters and airspace. Navigational aids are essential for preventing accidents and ensuring safe, efficient travel across oceans, lakes, and skies.
