During past few years buoys have appeared in variety of shapes and forms; rather than being limited to `moored navigational aids', buoys can be moored or unmoored, manned or unmanned, surface or subsurface, and can be used for variety of functions, such as following and determining ocean currents, obtaining water data, maintaining weather vigilance, satellite tracking, etc; various platforms, towers and other shapes including naval units, and their functions are noted.
