Welcome to Cooperative Charting!
The Cooperative Charting Program of the United States Power Squadrons consists of three important and fun-to-do Civic Service activities:
1) Nautical Surveys (e.g. ATONs and Bridges) are typically conducted on the water by boat,
2) Marina Surveys, which can be done by land or by boating to a marina, and
3) Geodetic Marker Recoveries which are typically conducted by land.

The Cooperative Charting Program is conducted in close cooperation with:
-
The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE),
-
the United States Coast Guard (USCG),
-
NOAA’s National Geodetic Survey (NGS), and
-
Cruisers’ Net.
After each activity by a member or group of members, a report is submitted to the USPS/ABC National Cooperative Charting Committee for approval and the awarding of credits to those participating. At year-end, national and district recognition is awarded to individuals, squadrons, and districts for their achievements.
There is something for everyone, and the time spent on these activities can contribute toward earning a Merit Mark.
