## Basic Information

Add a buoy name to make it memorable and easy to distinguish from other buoys on your dashboard. You may add an optional description for additional context. For more tips and naming conventions, see [Adding a Buoy](/fundamentals/buoys-and-sensors/adding-a-buoy.md#naming-best-practices).

## Deployment Location

This section shows your indicated buoy's deployment location as specified at the time of deployment. You can immediately see the deployment status (in this case *Deployed*) and whether its location is being shared on the Global Buoy Map ([read more](/fundamentals/buoys-and-sensors/buoy-settings/sharing-settings.md)).
