  • IMO introduced the concept of e-Navigation and proposed MSPs(Maritime Service Portfolios) concept to reduce marine accidents, to improve efficiency of ship operation, port operation, and ship operation technology. Korean e-Navigation defines S1 ~ S5 services, as the service concept focused on domestic e-Navigation service corresponding to IMO MSPs, and is constructing a system as an ongoing project. S2 service (onboard system remote monitoring service) among the concepts of Korean e-Navigation services, is a service concept that judges the emergency level according to risk if an abnormal condition occurs during navigation, and provides corresponding guidance to accident ships based on emergency level. The purpose of this paper is to provide a basic architecture proposal of Korean e-Navigation S2 service navigation safety module, based on the S2 service operation concept. To do this, we conducted a questionnaire survey to ask experts with experience with sailors, to respond to the subjective risk experienced by sailors considering effects of anomalies, including equipment failure relative to sailing and navigational safety. Risk level for each abnormal condition was classified. The basic algorithm design of the navigation safety module is composed of safety index (SI) calculation module based on results of questionnaire and expert opinions, safety level (SL) determination module according to safety index, and corresponding guidance generation module according to safety level. To conduct basic validation of basic architecture of the navigation safety module, simulation of the ship anomaly monitoring was performed, and results have been revealed.

  • The Korean e-Navigation system is a Korean approach to correspond with implementation of IMO e-Navigation. It provides five services, among them SV20 service, a ship remote monitoring system that collects and processes sensor information related to fire, navigation, and seakeeping performance safety. The system also detects abnormal conditions such as fires, capsizing, sinking, navigation equipment failure during navigation, and calculates the safety index and determines the emergency level. According to emergency level, it provides appropriate emergency response guidance for the onboard operator. The fire safety module is composed of three sub-modules; each module is the safety index sub-module, the emergency level determination sub-module and emergency response guidance sub-module. In this study, operational concept of the fire safety module in SV20 service is explained, and fire safety assessment factors are estimated, to calculate the fire safety index. Fire assessment factors included 'Fire detector position factor,' 'Smoke diffusion rate factor,' and 'Fire-fighting facilities factor.'

  • As a sense of practical field, most researchers emphasize the importance of safety management to prevent marine accidents. The purpose of this paper is to develope a new safety evaluation method using Safety Index (SI) which is to measure the emotional feeling of navigation officer by traffic situations. In this study, the questionnaires with SI are used to investigate the degree of sensing levels of navigation officers according to the navigation situations. In addition, the traffic data obtained from AIS (Automatic Identification System) data are used to give actual situations in the questionnaire investigation. As results of questionaries investigations based upon the AIS data, it is shown that the Safety Index can be used as a criterion to determine the safety levels of ship navigating in a coastal areas.

  • Numerous maritime safety technologies and systems are being developed to support safe navigation at Sea. e-Navigation is a representative system for maritime safety. It is being developed to maximize the ships safety by applying most maritime safety technologies. The e-Navigation system is being developed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) with the aim of introducing it by 2019. South Korea has already recognized the importance of maritime safety support technology and is actively introducing e-Navigation. Korean e-Navigation is being designed to provide diverse functions for maritime safety, such as providing an optimal safe route, risk analysis, and weather information. Service modules that provide e-Navigation's each function use different types of data that are difficult to configure as a single database. In this paper, we analyze the data needed for Korean e-Navigation, the data service system structure and types that can effectively support it.

  • 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.
