Aid to Navigation (AToN) targets.

AToN targets represent shore-based or mobile stations that have
been equipped with AIS technology. They broadcast information
such as their location, approximately every 3 minutes.
These stations may also be programmed to provide other navigation
safety information, for example, meteorological and hydrological
data. However, not all information broadcast by AToN targets is
currently supported by your multifunction display.

press the VIEW FULL AIS DATA softkey:
