Abstract

The recent huge maritime casualties and their environmental impacts showed that human error in ship navigation is one of the primary causes leading to accidents. In order to reduce maritime accidents and human errors in ship navigation, it is very important and urgent to improve the skills of navigators and develop advanced navigation support system for ship operations. For example, a SCMS(Ship Control and Management System), INS(Integrated Navigation System) and PCS(propulsion Control System) which are considered as a ship automation system was operated in ship. Furthermore, the most recent automation ships collision incidents warn us that only making automation ships alone is not sufficient for improving ship safety. Effective interaction between officer and ship automation system is essential for safety. In this paper, the interactive relationship between officer and the ship automation system was studied, then the research result for reducing maritime casualties will be presented.
