    This notice warns mariners that positions obtained from satellite systems like GPS may differ significantly from positions on nautical charts due to different reference datums. Mariners are advised not to rely solely on satellite-derived positions, especially near coastlines or dangers, and to use alternative methods of obtaining positional information for safe navigation.

    To accompany Notice to Mariners 4112/2006

    On Chart 3804

    CAUTION: SATELLITE-DERIVED
    POSITIONS
    Positions obtained from Global Navigation
    Satellite Systems, such as GPS, are normally
    referred to WGS84 Datum. The differences
    between satellite-derived positions and
    positions on this chart cannot be determined;
    mariners are warned that these differences
    MAY BE SIGNIFICANT TO NAVIGATION and
    are therefore advised to use alternative
    methods of obtaining positional information,
    particularly when navigating close to the shore
    or in the vicinity of dangers.
