This may or may not answer your actual question; the wording is a little ambiguous.
Fresnel originally developed the lens style named after him for use in lighthouses. The lenses used in lighthouses needed to be very large and have a short focal length, but short focal length lenses need to be highly curved. That combination means that in a plano-convex lens, the middle is much thicker than the edges, and not only does the lens require a lot of (expensive) glass, it's heavy and has thin fragile edges.
The lens Fresnel designed overcame these problems, and so made it possible to for lighthouses to have extremely large and powerful lenses that previously would have been impractical.
When land is out of sight, a radar is the most useful navigation instrument. It allows mariners and pilots to detect and track other vessels, land formations, and obstacles, providing critical information about their surroundings. Additionally, GPS (Global Positioning System) can be utilized for precise positioning and navigation, ensuring safe travel over open water or remote areas.
A water way built to carry water for navigation or irrigation is a canal.
A Fresnel lens can be used to concentrate solar heat effectively by focusing sunlight onto a small area, increasing the intensity of the heat. This concentrated heat can then be used for various applications such as generating electricity or heating water.
No it doesn't!!
To know water depths you need a fathometer. For navigation GPS is recomended.
I drilled 2 small holes in the back and on the bottom of the lenses. Mine kept getting water in the lenses and fogging them up. I also had trouble with the water coming in contact with the bulb which would cause it to blow. I drilled 2 small holes in the back and on the bottom of the lenses.

A polarized lens cuts more reflected glare but the actual protection of polarized lenses and G15 lenses are the same. Polarized sunglass lenses reduce glare reflected off roads, bodies of water, snow, and other horizontal surfaces where the G15 lenses do not.
False
Yes, you can swim with transition lenses. However, prolonged exposure to chlorine or saltwater can damage the lenses over time. It's recommended to rinse the glasses with fresh water after swimming to help preserve the lenses.
nautical
Yes because they are very useful they make sure the water is save!
fish in the water, lenses, etc
