- Boaters checking bridge clearance and tide context
- Worth noticing
- The sample calculation keeps a separate 3-foot buffer visible: 30 feet of air gap minus a 24-foot boat leaves a 3-foot margin.
Field notes
The workflow keeps boat height and the planning buffer as separate inputs, then pairs a bridge sensor with a distinct tide-prediction station. The page says the bridge references carry NOAA station IDs, but cautions that a listed station may not have a current reading. It also identifies chart-derived features as discovery aids and says the GIS conversion is not certified for navigation.
