부산항 신항은 현재 21개의 선석 규모에서 2030년까지 총 40선석까지 확대할 계획을 갖고 있다. 항만의 확대에 따라 선박 통항량 증가가 예상되며, 이를 대비해 해상교통관제도 해상교통량을 기반으로 집중관제구역을 설정할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 부산항 신항을 대상으로 해상교통위험도 모델을 이용해 위험구역을 정량화하고 집중적으로 관제가 필요한 구역을 도출하는 것을 목적으로 한다.

The purpose of this study are analyzing marine incident occurred in Busan VTS area, establishing standard of marine incident based on the data, and presenting the way to activate marine incident system. As implement this system, it is figured out that marine incident system could contribute to preventing similar accident, standing out role of VTS and improvement of VTS officer's ability. It includes efficiency of VTS marine incident and matters which necessary to implement this system.

Vessel traffic servies (VTS) control movements in ports and coastal areas 24 hours a day using VHF. Thus, we were able to check ship movements and the patterns followed by VTS officers in VTS areas using VHF communication analysis. This study is intended to identify control intervals for dangerous situations and provide VTS officers with basic data and guidelines to prevent these occurrences in advance. We listened to Busan port's VHF communication for seven days and obtained risk values using the Park model with reference to controlled ships. The probability of a dangerous situation arising under a controller's watch per unit of time was confirmed to follow a Poisson distribution. As a result, for each 3.50 hours that VTS directly controls an area, (and in daytime for each 2.85 hours) a ship communicates in a VTS area every 3.84 hours, and some of there communications exceed certain risk values in VTS areas.

부산신항 물동량 증가 및 선박의 초대형화로 인해 가덕수도의 혼잡도가 증가되고 있으며, 지속적인 항만 개발로 인해 공사투입 선박으로 인한 위험도도 높아지고 있다. 특히, 가덕수도 내 주의해역은 선박의 교차항행 위험도가 높은 구역으로 선박 통항안전 향상을 위한 법률적, 관제적 측면의 보완방법을 제시하였다.

In ports of Korea, the marine traffic flow is congested due to a large number of vessels coming in and going out. In order to improve the safety and efficiency of these vessels, South Korea is operating with a Vessel Traffic System, which is monitoring its waters 24-7. However despite these efforts of the VTS (Vessel Traffic System) officers, marine accidents are occurring in their assigned districts. VTS Officers are controlling subjectively based on their experience due to no VTS guideline. On this paper, we listened to Busan VHF channel for 3days and applied to collision risk model. With collision risk model, We deducted a moment which advise or recommend to vessel in encounter situation, VTSO's career, day&night.. We suggested a collision risk value as guide line of VTSO's control time.

In order to improve the safety and efficiency of these vesse's movement, South Korea is operating with a Vessel Traffic System, which is monitoring its flow 24-7. However despite these efforts of the VTS (Vessel Traffic System) officers, marine accidents are occurring continuously in their control area. VTS Officers are controlling subjectively based on their experience due to no VTS control guideline of dangerous situation among vessels. On this paper, we listened to Busan VHF channel for 3days and analyzed the message. With collision risk model, We analyzed a moment of risk which officers advise or recommend to vessel in encounter situation, VTSO's career, and day&night.

However despite these efforts of the VTS (Vessel Traffic System) officers, marine accidents are occurring in their assigned districts and it is made a danger situation every 20minute. On this paper, we listened to Busan VHF channel for 3days and applied to collision risk model. With collision risk model, We deducted a moment which advise or recommend to vessel. We suggested a collision risk model as VTSO support system.

본 연구에서는 VTSO 관점에서 선박 충돌위험도 평가모델(CoRi)을 이용하여 부산항 관제구역내에서 발생한 일반 상선간 준사고 사례에 대한 충돌 위험도와 선종과 선박의 크기를 소형선박(유선 도선 어선 등)으로 가정할 경우 계산된 충돌 위험도를 비교함으로써 VTSO가 일반 상선과 다른 운항 특성을 가진 소형선박의 모니터링 및 충돌 위험 판단의 어려움을 수치적으로 분석 연구고자 한다.

In order to prevent the dangers of major marine accidents, it is very important to be aware of in advance through marine incidents in the background of Heinrich's law, formulated by the safety pioneer who is credited with focusing on workplace safety with emphasis on the human element. At least 11 cases of collision accidents occurred in the Busan VTS area from January 1st to December 31st, 2019, and 24 cases of VTS marine incidents were reported during the same period. According to Heinrich's law, there could be many more potentially risky situations besides the 24 reported cases. In this study, the criteria for VTS marine incidents were established through advanced research and a survey of VTS operators, and analysis of 24 cases of VTS marine incidents in the Busan VTS area. Traffic surveys were conducted for three days to identify potentially hazardous situations. According to the survey, there were 216 cases of VTS marine incidents, and within a year, it is estimated there could be about 26,280 cases. Even if conditions such as "missing VHF communication feedback" which is an important cause of marine incidents, are not reflected, there are many potential risks in the VTS area. Thus, it is vital to strengthen the VTS marine incident reporting system.

VTS operators monitor movements of vessels within their jurisdiction and provide necessary information to ensure safe navigation. This involves communication with vessels within the VTS area. Contents of these communications are manually recorded in logbooks. However, manual logging faces limitations due to its inability to document details comprehensively and the challenge of constant recording amidst various duties. This study aimed to quantitatively analyze the workload associated with manual logkeeping by examining eye movements of VTS operators. Eye-tracking devices were used to measure gaze patterns of VTS operator at the Busan Port. Results indicated that approximately 65% of the VTS operators' gaze was directed towards the operation consoles, which were focal points for marine traffic information. In contrast, only about 9% of their gaze was directed towards logbooks. These findings suggest that while VTS operators predominantly focus on areas related to information gathering and dissemination, logbooks, being information-recording zones, receive minimal attention. For effective traffic management, the primary focus should be on information processing and provision rather than manual documentation.
