The Navigational Guide of the Lombardy Region is a mapping service that allows users to identify the port and docking facilities present on the waterways and major lakes of Lombardy.
A portolano – in nautical terms – is a manual for coastal and port navigation or aviation, based on experience and observation, containing information related to a specific region.
The Navigational Guide of the Lombardy Region enhances access to Lombardy’s lakes, rivers, and canals by locating and describing on a map the facilities for public navigation, recreational boating, and the main navigation rules. It includes both public and private ports and the docks of the regular line navigation services. Information is provided about the characteristics of the ports and the services offered.
For the lakes, the guide indicates the division into zones with limits and rules for recreational navigation. It also represents the existing regular line navigation connections.
