A navigation system for a marine vessel incudes one or more proximity sensors, each at a sensor location on the marine vessel and configured to measure proximity of objects in an area surrounding the marine vessel and generate proximity measurements, and a control system configured to receive the proximity measurements measured by the one or more proximity sensors. From the received proximity measurements, four linearly-closest proximity measurements to the marine vessel are identified, including one closest proximity measurement to the marine vessel in each of a positive X direction, a negative X direction, a positive Y direction, and a negative Y direction. A most important object (MIO) dataset is generated identifying the four linearly-closest proximity measurements and propulsion of the marine vessel is controlled based at least in part on the MIO dataset.
