These are cartographic publications, having different subject matter and designation, containing information that is represented insufficiently or missing on charts, required for navigation conditions study, as well as some necessary data, which contribute to solution of navigational and other problems of applied and scientific nature. The auxiliary cartographic products are not used directly for navigation.
Overview charts of the inland waterways
The charts are destined for a general familiarization of users with the Dnipro River within the limits of Ukraine.
The charts are produced by the responsible State Hydrographic Service of Ukraine, based on the complex surveying and hydrographic work materials.
