Abstract
Navigational charts in Korea have been increasingly published in line with the development of harbour for 60 years without a detailed planning. Recently, charts cause inconvenience to use and make navigator confused because they have not been adjoined to adjacent chart effectively and have been to overlap with other charts of the same scale. In this paper, we propose new chart system through adjusting area of the chart and rearranging its scale. This newly proposed scheme was first designed by researchers who have on-board career, then has been verified and revised by questionnaire and pilots' opinion. As a result, total number of Korean chart could be changed from 309 to 334.
