Abstract
Distress accidents occur annually by and failure of sea rescue and time delay lead to fatal accident. In the event of maritime distress, most of the equipments used for search and rescue are in responsible for the position of ships. An MOB equipment is a representative equipment for lifesaving and uses AIS communication method. However, the MOB equipment has problems of interference with existing vessel traffic process and it is difficult to apply because there is no proper certification standard. Therefore, this paper proposes a maritime search and rescue supporting system using smartphone. Utilizing the widely constructed IT infrastructure, it collects position information of the fishing boat and leisure ship using GPS embedded in the smartphone. Also the developed system supports to participate in the rescue by sending the information about the occurrence of the survivor in a certain area to the ship operator.
