초록

선박교통관제사는 관제구역 내 통항선박의 동정을 관찰하고 필요한 정보를 제공하고 있다. 이를 위해 관제구역 내 선박과 교신을 하며, 교신내용은 수기로 관제일지에 기록하고 있다. 그러나 수기로 작성하는 관제일지는 상황적 한계로 내용을 상세히 기록할 수 없으며, 여러 업무로 매 순간 기록하기는 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구의 목적은 관제사 시선분석을 통해 수기로 기록하고 있는 관제일지의 업무량을 정량적으로 분석하는 것이다. 이를 위해 부산항 선박교통관제사를 대상으로 시선추적장치를 활용하여 당직자의 시선을 측정했다. 시선 측정결과, 해상교통정보가 집중되는 운용콘솔에 약 65% 시선이 향하고 있었다. 관제일지는 약 9% 시선이 향하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 관제사의 시선이 향하는 영역은 대부분 정보를 수집하거나 제공하는 영역인데 반해, 관제일지는 정보를 기록하는 영역으로 집중적인 교통관리를 위해서는 정보 처리 및 제공에 업무가 집중되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

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.
