Buoys are generally used for the navigation of vessels. Their distinctive shape, colour and light (if they have one) will indicate to the navigator, where abouts a danger lies. Marking either the edge of a shallow channel or an isolated danger.
In combination with an updated chart, they can be used for determining a position. Generally used in shallow water (they are anchored to the bottom), they prevent vessels running aground.
There are some buoys that gather ocean data (floating free) and others specifically designed to moor vessels.
