The International Association of Navigational Aids to Navigation (IALA) utilizes the S-200 standard model and test data for product specification development and validation related to generating datasets compliant with the S-201 data format. Currently, they are focusing on improving the S-200 testbed DB performance and extending the IALA Questionnaire survey functionality. In this study, we investigate the design and implementation of features required to manage additional questionnaires in the S-200 testbed.

In recent years, navigation aids, which plays as sea traffic lights, have been digitized, and are developing beyond simple sign purpose to provide various functions such as marine information collection, supervision, control, etc. For example, Busan Port which is located in South Korea is leading the application of the advanced technologies by installing cameras on buoys and recording video images to supervise maritime accidents. However, there are difficulties to perform their major functions since the advanced technologies require long-term battery operation and also management and maintenance of them are hampered by marine characteristics. This study proposes a system that can automatically notify maritime objects passing around buoys by analyzing image information. In the existing sensor-based accident prevention systems, the alarms are generated by a collision detection sensor. The system can identify the cause of the accident whilst even though it is difficult not possible to fundamentally prevent the accidents. Therefore, in order to overcome these limitations, the proposed a maritime object detection system is based on marine characteristics. The experiments demonstrate that the proposed system shows about 5 times faster processing speed than other existing algorithms.

최근 해양안전에 대한 국내외의 관심과 함께 통신기술의 발전, 선박에 다양한 디지털 및 전자장비들이 도입됨에 따라 선박을 위한 전자항법체계인 e-navigation이 주목을 받고 있다. E-navigation은 안전뿐 아니라, 해양에서의 디지털시대의 서막을 여는 IT 융합의 새로운 패러다임을 제공하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 e-navigation과 관련하여 국제해사기구(IMO), 국제항로표지협회(IALA: International Association of Lighthouse Authorities), 국제수로기구 (IHO: International Hydrographic Organization), 국제전기협회(IEC) 등의 관련 기술에 대한 국제표준화기구의 최근 동향에 대해서 살펴볼 것이다. 또한, 한국형 e-navigation에 대한 국내 동향과 함께 최근 각광을 받고 있는 사물인터넷(IoT: Internet of Things) 기술을 해양분야에 적용하기 위한 방안에 대해서도 다루고자 한다.

IMO NAV54차의 권고에 의거하여 전자해도와 ECDIS는 2012년부터 단계적으로 선박에 탑재할 것을 의무화하고 있다. 우리나라는 상대적으로 빠른 시기인 1997년부터 전자혜도를 제작하기 시작하여 현재는 전해안을 디지털화함으로써 It강국으로서의 위상을 높혔다. 2008년부터 GRID based전자해도를 공급하기 시작하였고, Dynamic ENC, MIO, S-100, AML 등의 차세대전자해도를 추진하고 있다. 국내공급대행업체뿐만 아니라 PRIMAR와 IC-ENC등의 글로벌전자해도유통센타(RENC)를 통해 전세계에 공급하고 있다. 전자해도는 ECDIS드의 기본 항해장비에 적용될 뿐 아니라, VTS,AIS,VMS, 기상정보, 항로표지모니터링 등 다양한 분야의 기본맵으로 채택되고 있다. 또한 다양한 인터페이스, 3D Display, 해저지형도, 육해상 지도통합 등 기술적인 발전이 거듭되고 있어 명실공히 수로, 향해, 관제, 감시, 환경 등을 포괄하는 e-Navigation의 중심으로 서고 있다.

Electronic Navigational Charts (ENCs) are digital charts encoded in S-57 format, which contain navigational informations such as coastlines, depth areas, and nautical marks. Although they have been successfully used for the safe navigation of ships, they have limited usages and applications because of their specialized data format and access systems. To cope with such drawbacks, S-57 ENCs need to be transformed into more generalized format such as Geography Markup Language (GML). The transformed GML ENCs can be kept in a database for efficiency, and can be accessed through Internet for usability. This paper proposes a new method for transforming and managing ENCs with XML database. S-57 ENCs are lust transformed into GML format, and then stored in a XML database. On the database, users can query for their needs. To validate the feasibility of the proposed method, we developed a protype system, and then conducted several test runs. The system can provide users with easy access to the marine information contained in ENCs. It also provides compatibility and efficiency by virtue of GML and XML database, respectively.

As discussions of the International Maritime Organization for the introduction of the Marine Autonomous Surface Ship (MASS) began in earnest, discussions were conducted to prioritize cybersecurity (Cyber Risk Management) when developing a system to support MASS operation at the 27th ENAV Committee Working Group (WG2). Korea launched a technology development project for autonomous ships in 2020, and has been promoting detailed tasks for cybersecurity technology development since 2021. MASS operation in a digital maritime communication system environment requires network security of various digital equipment that was not considered in the existing maritime communication environment. This study introduces the basic concept of network security equipment to support MASS operation in the detailed task of cybersecurity technology development, and defines the network security equipment interface for MASS ship application in the basic stage.
