A mariner cadet gains the ability to identify and avoid potential collisions with other ships through ARPA/Radar simulation education. This research surveyed first domestic and overseas's rules (e.g., MOMAF's Standard, the STCW Convention, etc.) of the simulation education, upon investigation the only content and timing of this simulation-based education are specified according to these rules, and maritime education institutions issue the related certification autonomously after a student has taken the simulation because no simulation education module exists to further guide the ARPA/Radar simulation. As a result, it is difficult for students to acquire consistent maritime ability through ARPA/Radar simulation. This paper discusses standardization of these education modules to produce more consistent mariner ability, and verify the degree of improvement of education that would be achieved by enacting the proposed education module. The simulation education system used in maritime institutions in Korea was investigated, and scenarios reflecting traffic flow in actual waterways was proposed based on marine traffic surveys so teaching modules can educate/assess more effectively based on core marine abilities. Improvements in education and training were also verified using data collected over 2 years based on a standardized module. Each education institution can enact an effective, systematic education approach using standardized ARPA/Radar education modules proposed in this paper, and this can set a foundation to contribute to safer vessel navigation by improving maritime abilities.

An estimation algorithm of collision risk among multiple ships has been developed in order to reduce human error and prevent collision accidents. The algorithm is designed to calculate the collision risk among ships based on Fuzzy theory by using AIS data as traffic information. In this paper, to validate the algorithm, the AIS data of actual collision accident, which occurred between a product carrier and a cargo carrier in Busan harbor in 2009 are collected. The replay simulation is carried out on the actual AIS data and the collision risk is calculated in real time. In this paper, the features of the estimation algorithm of collision risk and the results of replay simulation based on AIS data of actual collision accident are discussed.

NSW in Australia is famous for beautiful beaches and water activities. There are now almost 450,000 people who hold a NSW power boat driving licence and 200.000 registered boat owners. The popularity of boating continues to grow with licence and registration figures increasing by 3-4 per cent each year. This is a survey about the guide book for boating licence in NSW. This study outlines the essential information such as the types of licence, registration of vessels, choosing the right boat, maintain vessel, safety equipment and preparing for a safe boating trip. In addition, it touches the technical side like boat handling, water traffic rules, navigation markers, emergency and the ways to avoid them. Recently, more and more people are interested in boating. It forms an important part of recreational and tourism activities. To manage these demands effectively and to provide the orderly and safe leisure hours, it is necessary to induce more organizational and serviceable boating licence system.

In recent years, the maritime industry system including port facilities, VTS(Vessel traffic service) is rapidly evolving with the development of technology. The connection between systems has been greatly expanded, and many research cases using this connectivity have been reported. This paper deals with the structural design of the arrival/departure support system for an autonomous ship. The system requires navigation data from the autonomous ship and radar/AIS data from the port. In this paper, design result on how the arrival/departure support system interacts with the autonomous ship and port system are addressed.

As the new notification of Ministry of Public Safety and Security on the management of coastal VTS has been effective since April $20^{th}$ this year, all pleasure ships over 2 tons with AIS device(Automatic Identification System) must be the objects given certain vessel traffic service. So Tong-yeong Coastal VTS which has the largest number of pleasure ship throughout the country tries to review some problems that have emerged since the beginning and require consideration in all its aspects to prevent any maritime incidents related with pleasure ships and contribute largely to making our sea safe.

The efficient utilization of VTS console functions in terms of user helps carry out VTS tasks successfully. All the console functions for VTS operation have been surveyed. The default functions used in current VTS console are evaluated by VTS operation, Most popular functions are categorized, and the other functions for the advanced VTS services are suggested. The result of research expect application possibility when designing of GUI.

Two different sensors (here, KOMPSAT and RADARSAT) are considered for ship detection, and are used to delineate the detection performance for their data. The experiments are set for coastal regions of Mokpo Port and Ulsan Port and field experiments on board pilot boat are conducted to collect in situ ship validation information such as ship type and length. This paper introduce mainly the experiment result of ship detection by both RADARSAT SAR imagery and landbased RADAR data, operated by the local Authority of South Korea, so called vessel traffic system (VTS) radar. Fine imagery of Ulsan Port was acquired on June 19, 2004 and in-situ data such as wind speed and direction, taking pictures of ships and natural features were obtained aboard a pilot ship. North winds, with a maximum speed of 3.1 m/s were recorded. Ship's position, size and shape and natural features of breakwaters, oil pipeline and alongside ship were compared using SAR and VTS. It is shown that KOMPSAT/EOC has a good performance in the detection of a moving ship at a speed of 7 kts or more an hour that ship and its wake can be imaged. The detection capability of RADARSAT doesn't matter how fast ship is running and depends on a ship itself, e.g. its material, length and type. Our results indicate that SAR can be applicable to automated ship detection for a VTS and SAR combination service.

Currently AIS needs high efficiency and safety in terms of operational management and, in the aspect of service range, it is time to minimize shadow regions through conductivity evaluation of AIS transmitter. Thus this study analyzes shadow regions and the reach of waves from stations through AIS conductivity evaluation. First, this study examines the characteristics of AIS wave and draws up methods to analyze the reach of waves according to the characteristics. Second, this study finds out service regions and shadow regions of the 22 stations across the nation by analyzing the actual data based on climate and topography. Lastly, this study summarizes the results of wave conductivity evaluation and conductivity problems and proposes improvement measures.
