  • Marine traffic management could be defined as the implementation of managerial technical measures to improve vessel traffic safety. The managerial elements of vessel traffic management for ports and harbours or narrow channels include the total amount of traffic control, the vessel traffic separation scheme, speed restriction, traffic control by signals, the navigation information service and so forth. This research aims to quantify how much the traffic separation schemes(TSS) contribute to the alleviation effect of ship handling difficulty and to propose a design standard when the individual management measure is applied in an actual waterway. Traffic separation schemes have now been established in most of the major routes and congested waters of the world, and the number of collisions and groundings have often been dramatically reduced. In this part, the relationship between the alleviation of ship handling difficulty and the reduction of encounter figures among ships is quantitatively clarified by applying the ES model. As results of simulation analysis, it is recognized that a traffic separation system is most effective in the case of narrow width and heavy traffic volume. The centre buoy installation reduces about 1/4 of the alleviation of ship handling difficulty, TSS establishment 1/3, and design change to one-way traffic from two-way traffic reduces 1/2.

  • The goal for the CD&R system is to predict that a conflict is going to occur in the future, communicate the detected conflict to a human operator, and, in some cases, assist in the resolution of the conflict situation. To provide insight into different methods of conflict detection and resolution, a literature review of previous research models and current developmental and operational systems was performed. This paper focuses only on the specific attributes of each model, not on the depth to which a model has been analyzed, validated, or accepted. Thus, care should be taken to remember that a model that seems to be simple according to our categorization scheme may be significantly more viable than an apparently sophisticated model.

  • Since July 2006, marine traffic safety management system have been enforced to support the vessels transiting across the coastal area and the vessels coming in and out of ports in southwestern coastal area where heavy traffic density and marine casualties occurred frequently. The marine traffic volume for the marine traffic environmental assessment was measured by the information from RADAR and AIS system in the area. The distributions of marine casualties were analyzed in the main routes and traffic separation schemes during the last five years and the navigational dangerous elements were investigated with the influence of natural environment, the distribution of fisheries and survey questionnaire. Marine accidents of merchant ships have a tendency to decrease gradually but in case of fishing boats, the rate of marine accidents have a contrary results in this area during the last five years. The dangerous elements on navigation appeared to be the dense force from June to August, fisheries activities and the vessels which not follow the compulsory watch on VHF-band radio communication equipments.

  • In the study, evaluation indicators that should be considered in applying traffic calming schemes were developed, and it was intended to analyze the importance of indicators that should most considered in evaluation traffic calming scheme through AHP analysis on the basis of it. The result of the study is summarized as follows. The result of evaluation indicators may be summarized by dividing into residential area and commercial area. In category, the safety is shown to be more important than other indicators in the analysis when evaluation (residential area is 0.514 and commercial area is 0.439). Importance of evaluation indicators was analyzed in order Average Vehicle Speed, Traffic Accident Severity, and Pedestrian Separation. Residential areas to help keep the safety of pedestrians 'Average Vehicle Speed' as the major indices were derived. In commercial areas were analyzed as an important indicator Pedestrian Separation. Because there are so many pedestrians. When applying the effect of Traffic Calming, residential is greater than the commercial area.

  • As per the rapid development of world economics the marine traffic volume was increased accordingly and caused frequent disasters in human lives and natural environment in the consequence of accidents. As the result of the above they started to establish Vessel Traffic System(VTS) and separation scheme in waterway from 1960' to prevent the marin traffic accident but the problem of safety at sea appears now as neither fully defined nor sufficiently analysed. At the present, the dominant factor in establishing the strategy of marine traffic has been safety of navigation concerning only with the ship, but the risk of society derives almost wholly from the nature of cargo. To measure the degree of danger for each ship there is suggested concept of safety factor numbers denoting the level of latent danger in connection with ship and her cargo. In this paper, where the strategy of VTS is put on controlling density of safety factor for control area. it suggested algorithms how to assign the vessels and also to get optimal sequence of vessels located to a sector in the sense of minimizing the passage delay. For the formulation of problem, min max and 0-1 programming methods are applied and developed heuristic algorithm is presented with numerical example to improve the efficiency of calculation.

  • A robust scheme of locating and counting the number of vehicles m urban traffic scenes, a core component of vision-based traffic monitoring systems, is presented The method is based on the evidential reasoning, where vehicle evidences m the background subtraction Image are obtained by a new locally optimum thresholding, and the evidences are merged by three heuristic rules using the geometric constraints The locally optimum thresholding guarantees the separation of bright and dark evidences of vehicles even when the vehicles are overlapped or when the vehicles have similar color to the background Experimental results on diverse traffic scenes show that the detection performance is very robust to the operating conditions such as the camera location and the weather The method may be applied even when vehicle movement is not observed since a static Image IS processed without the use of frame difference.

  • Evaluation of Freeway Congestion Management Using Mesoscopic Traffic Simulator A mesoscopic simulation study to measure the effects of trip generation caused by rampant expansion of residential area around the Kyungbu corridor has been conducted. Some alternatives, which seem to be judgememtally plausible and technically feasible to mitigate such congestion, have been carefully examined and evaluated by the simulation model called INTEGRATION. Alternatives are mostly network improvements. Banpo IC dedicated ramp construction (A1), Seocho IC TSM based weaving elimination (A2), dedicated local and express separation over Seocho-Yangjae segment (A3), Heonleung IC (A4) and Daewang If installations (A5), Pangyo IC improvement (A6), Baikhyun IC (A7) and Dongbaek IC installations (A8) along with Shingal-Pangyo segment capacity addition (A9). The most capital intensive ones are A9, A5, and A4 in that order. A1, A6, A7, and A8 are short in distance but they are also capital intensive and need some construction periods. The least capital driven alternatives are h2 and A3, the h2 is easier to do, but A3 needs traffic diversion scheme during construction. The A1, A7, and A8 have been identified cost effective in terms of speed increase and travel time saving. Along with these results, some limitations and future research agenda regarding simulation have also been presented.

  • Waters that are under surveillance for traffic safety designated area due to increased risk of ship accidents are usually areas in the coastal waters specified by the government. However, there are still some controversies surrounding application of navigation rule in regards to these waters. Such law is especially difficult to apply to VTSO access sea route within Kwangyang bay area. Therefore, as a solution for the issues discussed in this research, the goal is to help establish a unified application method for navigation rule in relation to VTS areas, to improve marine traffic safety by separating and applying specific laws from marine safety law, and to provide a ground on which the VTSO can take a proactive and focused approach in performing monitoring duties.

  • 해상교총관제는 해상운송에서의 운영적 ${\cdot}$ 환경적 위험을 강소시키기 위한 수단으로써 전 세계 여러 주요 항만과 수역에서 이용되고 있다. 현재 각 국에서는 자국연안에서의 선박통제제도를 적극적으로 실시하고 있으며, 해운의 활성화와 더불어 항만의 안전성 확보를 위하여 각국은 VTS에 관한 국내법을 제정하여 이를 시행하고 있다. 우리나라도 VTS와 관련하여 여러 규정들을 두고 있으나 각 개별입법 내에 산재해 있는 실정이며, VTS를 운영하는 관제요원의 책임과 권한을 명확하게 규정하고 있지 아니하다. 이에 향후 VTS 운영과 관련한 법제의 정비에 관한 논의를 촉진시키는 선행연구로써 현행 VTS 운영과 관련한 법적 문제점을 지적하고 개선방향을 제시한다. 우선 VTS 관제범위에 관한 논의는 국제법적 측면의 법리 정토가 필요하리라 생각되며, VTS 관제요원의 권한과 책임에 있어 적극적 관제에 대한 개념의 정립과 더불어 관제요원의 재인책임과 중과실 경과실에 대한 해상고유의 특성을 반영한 해석이 되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.
