Jeju coastal waters are limited to high-risk areas due to the passage of international cruise ships, passenger ships, with a large number of people and fishing boats, or to the jeju port and the jeju civilian-military combined port and near by seas, so a VTS system will be established along jeju and seogwipo coast. There is no accurate standard for determining the number of people required by the maritime traffic control center. Therefore, this study calculated the required operating personnel for control seats on the coast of jeju and seogwipo by using VTS big data to efficiently calculate the workload of maritime traffic control. It is judged that this study can be used basic data for research that sets the standard for calculating the control workload.

This paper compared the consistency of the Environment Stress(ES) model and the Potential Risk Assessment Model (PARK model, which was developed based on a Korean mariner risk perception) for the Busan adjacent waterway. Evaluation of accuracy and comparison of these two models have been made by Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) officers in the Busan VTS Centre. The assessment results of Busan waterway show that the PARK model is more consistent than the ES model as follows. (1) The difference between assessment results applying ES model and PARK model with risk degree of VTSOs were 34% and 5% respectively in six typical traffic situations. (2) The assessment using PARK model is more suitable and identical with the VTSOs opinion in his or her duty time.

Recently, ships' average navigation speed become faster than before because of the increasing of high-speeds vessel including container ships and passenger-ferries. So, it is considered that the speed limit in the navigation channel in Korea isn't proper for vessel management in these days. Also, there is rare paper studies about the speed limit quantitatively and numerically, especially the speed limit is discussing continuously, as abrogation of Incheon Port's speed limit and alleviation of Gwang-yang Port's speed limit according to the requests by the navigating mariners. Consequently this paper deals with the effectiveness of speed limits using the Environmental Stress Model, after replay of the navigation traffic flow in the straight waterway using marine traffic flow simulation technique.

The Maritime Traffic Safety Law of P. R. China has not the legal nature of navigation rule which regulates the vessel traffic directly but has the legal nature of management to ensure the safety and good order of the whale marine traffic. For that reason, the legal status of this Law is a general basic norm for the marine safety regulations rather than a definite enforcement regulation. This Law does not have any clear statements on adaptation of the steering and sailing rules of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, but it can be presumed the Convention would be applied on the viewpoint of the international practice. The subject matter of this Law is easily understandable, because the IMO and shipping countries have already made similar legislation. Since the maritime traffic condition of the P. R. China also has a direct effect upon the Korean coastal waters, it is essential to observe closely the process of enforcement and development of the P. R. China's Maritime Traffic Safety Law.

For effective ship management in VTS(Vessel Traffic Service), it needs to assess the external force acting on ship. Big data in maritime traffic can be roughly categorized into two groups. One is the traffic information including ship's particulars. The other is the external force information e.g., wind, sea wave, tidal current. This paper proposes the method to assess the external force acting on ship using big data in maritime traffic. To approach Big data in maritime traffic, we propose the Waterway External Force Code(WEF code) which consist of wind, wave, tidal and current information, Speed Over the Water(SOW) of each ship, weather information. As a results, the external force acting a navigating ship is estimated.

The purpose of this study is to find out what is the functional role of VTS in order to get the people concerned with marine traffic/transportation understand about VTS. VTS could be described as the essential risk management system in both cost effective on cost-benefit analysis and the sea space or time management at port, coastal environment. The important role of the VTS are those functions such as the decision making infrastructure, the passive/active safety measures at sea. VTS could not control/regulate marine traffic as strong as ATC(Air Traffic Control) owing to the marine traffic characters. However, the right and responsibility of VTS finally are belong to the master, pilot and mariners. For the benefit of the electronic technology development, VTS system also cloud be upgraded to communication system from information system. In connection with these system upgrading, the right and responsibility of VTS/staff should be supported by domestic legal system. The followings are presented for VTS to be effective. First, the cooperation and understanding of VTS between the peoples concerned with marine traffic/transportation are essential. Because they are all data supplier and also information consumers. Second, VTS staff/regulator should be selected, educated, trained accordingly as per their career, ability, quality, qualification, certification and etc. Third, the port reliability from VTS users depends on the factors such as economic interests, safety and effectiveness/efficiency of VTS.
