Analysis of Navigation Aid Effectiveness of Tianjin Port Water Depth Signal Tower and Development Protection under New Technical Conditions

Abstract

The Tianjin Port Water Depth Signal Tower is a navigational aid facility that provides tidal level information. In the last century, it made great contributions to the shipping industry of Tianjin Port and played an indispensable role in local flood control work; However, with the improvement of the accuracy of marine radar sounders, the influence of background lights, the increase of surrounding buildings, and the continuous widening and deepening of navigation channels, it is becoming increasingly rare for ship drivers to obtain tidal level information through their eyes or with the help of telescopes. In addition, whether drivers can obtain tidal level information through these methods is also a topic worthy of attention and research.
