Nav&Co was born from a collaboration between the Hydrographic and Oceanographic Service of the Navy (Shom), the French Office for Biodiversity (OFB) and the General Directorate of Maritime Affairs, Fisheries and Aquaculture (DGAMPA). These three public entities, concerned about your safety, the state of health of our oceans and the sustainability of pleasure boating, have brought together their skills to support sailors in gaining a better understanding of the environments around them.

The development of Nav&Co (Naveco) was ensured by the company bookBeo.
