Abstract :
The aim of the work is to develop basic techniques of an oceanographic vertical observation buoy system to keep the position within some area, such as a warm-core. The authors have designed and tested experimentally a prototype of a dynamic positioning buoy with GPS. The authors describe the design and examination of the prototype in detail and discuss the problem of practical use
