  • In near future, more congested and dangerous marine traffic environment due to the rapid marine traffics increase and ship handling difficulty by enlargement of ship size is predicted. In this paper, an navigation supporting system proposal made to enhance the safe navigation by providing the collision avoidance informations to the navigator via marine traffic environment assessment. Proposed navigation supporting system displays results of marine traffic environment assessment, degree of the dangers and gives reason of danger which is enhance situational awareness of navigator. For this purpose, results of marine traffic environment assessment which is obtained via real time assessment sent to the designated server and through the connection with navigation supporting system navigator being enable to see all those informations on the computer screen Navigator would utilize those information to make a decision in the difficult waterways and thus safe navigation could be enhanced.

  • In this paper, the state-of-the-art IVEF Service based on e-Navigation System was represented. The unification of the data exchange format among maritime-related systems is one of vital user-needs of e-Navigation, advantageous in bringing maritime safety and security. This paper propose the method to exchange marine information in IVEF, as recommended by the IALA, between VTS centers and Korea's GICOMS as well as the government-related agencies. To achieve this, a system data flow was designed which it acts as client and server. It enables the sending and receiving of Radar and CCTV images in accordance with the IVEF recommendation document of IALA.

  • Road and maritime transport which connecting main cities in the world is already fully saturated, and the loss cost caused by recent high oil prices is getting bigger. Transportation by inland waterway is rising as an alternative method of them. Concerning this, the GI Waterway is on construction to connect the Yellow sea and Seoul. Nevertheless, there are no existing aids to navigation around the area and no studies have been carried out for them. As the construction progresses, installation of proper aids to navigation should be considered and profound studies need to be carried out. This study focused on introduction of the cases and the systems of other countries inland waterway aids to navigation and suggested a suitable navigation aids system along the inland waterways in Korea and a way of installation for that system.

  • The AcciMap technique has been a fundamental tool for examining accidents and their causal factors across complex socio-technical systems. This study utilized the AcciMap framework to evaluate ferry navigation accidents in the Mombasa Channel from 2011 to 2020. It categorized the identified causal factors into four primary levels of AcciMap: government, regulatory bodies, ferry operating companies, and ferry operators, including environmental and equipment conditions. The aim is to assess these factors to address systemic deficiencies in ferry operations within the channel. The findings highlight significant gaps in the ferry operation system by using a cause-and-effect analysis. Based on this assessment, the paper offers recommendations to rectify these deficiencies and improve safety in ferry operations. This research underscores the utility of system theory-based tools in uncovering complex, multifaceted causes of ferry accidents and providing a robust framework for enhancing maritime transportation safety.

  • Marine casualties are caused mainly by collisions and grounding, due to human error. The SMART Navigation Service is preparing a measure to reduce marine casualties caused by human error and establish an LTE Accident Vulnerability Monitoring System (SV10) to evaluate the danger of collision or grounding for a vessel based on location information collected on land. This service will also share real-time vessel locations and danger information with related agencies to enable them to respond more quickly to accidents on land. In this study, statistical reports on marine casualties and investigation reports provided by the Korea Maritime Safety Tribunal are analyzed, so the percentage of marine casualties that could be reduced using the SV10 service could be identified.
