A nautical chart is an essential material not only for the safety of navigation at sea, but also for the research and understanding of the ocean. Paper nautical harts have been used for navigational purposes for several hundreds years, but it was show that paper nautical charts have certain limitations, because the speed of ships has increased dramatically, and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) are now available at sea. Thus, the development of digital charts has been conducted by a number of countries. As a result, the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) has developed a standard format, Special Publication No. 57 (S-57), as a guideline for the production of electronic navigational charts (ENC). Even though ENCs are a state-of-the-art navigational tool because they are produced on the basis of Geographical Information System (GIS) technology, they can be utilized for various purposes. in this paper, the usage of paper nautical charts, ENCs, and digital charts is reviewed. Also, the various application system that make use of electronic navigational harts and digital charts, as a basic geographical source of information, will be examined on the basis of GIS.

Although navigation systems and automatic identification technologies are in use for nautical safety of ocean vessels, ship collisions are increasing due to the growing number of overseas transportations. Since these accidents are mostly caused by the watch officers and crews' human mistakes, it is essential to develop a new set of systems to prevent such misfortunes. Therefore, we suggest a control and management system which monitors crews in order to conduct secure on-board navigation and nautical safety. We also materialized a mobile terminal system and portable device for the crews to check the status of the ship, and we designed a platform for an integrated surveillance system to assure a harmless voyage. Lastly, we attested the mutual connections of integrated safety-related data.

Since the marine accidents increase with the increased volume of traffic, preventive surveillance technology for safety navigation of the ships before the accident is being emphasized to secure the safety at sea along with post-accident measures. This paper aims to suggest a design based on an integrated safety management platform systems to support nautical safety, implements of bridge operation terminal equipments and alarm system for bridge watch monitoring and abnormal state of navigation/propulsion/machinery/power, and performs a quality evaluation for the actual boarding on the ship based on the classification standards.

Ships if 500 gross tonnage and upwards constructed on or after 1 July 2002 shall have an automatic tracking aids according to SOLAS V /19 but existing ships less than 10,000 gross tonnage constructed before 1 July 2002 have potential collision risks due to the lack of automatic plotting devices like as an ATA This paper aims to provide a homemade ATA by developing the tracking algorithm for ATA and to prevent collision incidents by distributing ATA system to coasters.

Integrated Ship-Shore Information System makes use of advanced technology of marine mobile communication and extends the computer network of shipping company to ship. This system conveniently accomplishes the information exchange between company and ship, guarantees navigation safety and improves commercial performance. The framework of integrated ship-shore information system and the analysis of its function are provided in this paper. Meanwhile, the idea based on the specification of J2EE to build this system is put forward and the relevant technology is demonstrated.

This paper describes a method for making 3D marine environmental database of ship handling simulator by using electronic nautical chart data. While developing simulator system, we had to digitize the nautical paper chart in order to obtain the basic data including coastline, navigational aids and so on. With the proposed method, we can get easily exact data from electronic navigational chart data, which is coded according to S-57 transfer standard of IHO and necessary to make the database of visual presentation system.

In order to improve the existing S-57 standard, International Hydrographic Organization(IHO) has developed S-100 standard, a Universal Hydrographic Data Model(UHDM) expanded from ISO 19100 series standard to hydrographic area, and is in the process of its implementation. International Maritime Organization(IMO) has established CMDS based on e-Navigation strategy data standard as International Association of Lighthouse Authorities(IALA) established IHDM based on aids to navigation data standard and each data standard is linked with the S-100 standard. Fundamental concept and core principles of S-100 standard is suitable not only for the development of a wide range of hydrographic data and service production standard, including the next generation ENC, but also the development of product specification of non-hydrographic area. This study has examined the operation principle of S-100 standard and analyzed its implementation process as e-Navigation data in relation with ENC. It also noted the utilization of S-100 standard based e-Navigation and its potential effect via examining the development cases of S-100 standard-based product specification, such as nautical publication, ship reporting and pilot request, digital routing guide, tide and water level transmission and other important data cases of e-Navigation field.
