Abstract :
On July 17, 1930 the “Standard for Navigational and Topographical Symbols” was approved by the American Standards Association as American Tentative Standard. The Institute as one of the five joint sponsors for Sectional Committee on Scientific and Engineering Symbols and Abbreviations, through which the Standard came, had already placed its approval on the standard. Definite arrangements on the final publication of this standard have not as yet been made.
