Abstract

In Korea, Yellow sea which is located west side of korea has a between 2.8 to 8.0 m tidal range. So, Vessel Traffic Support System(VTSS) is designed to provide predicted water level, tidal elevation and tide induced current. VTSS has a 58 tidal constituents from 1 year tide observed data and 23 tidal current constituents from 1 month current data at Dang-Jin P.P harbor. Predicted data visualized with graphs, vectors and stick plot. The purpose of VTSS give to information to maritime pilot for help to make decision schedule.
