Abstract

To protect the environment around the world, we are actively developing ecofriendly energy. Offshore wind farm generation installed in the sea is extremely large among various energies, and friction with ships occurs regularly. Other than the traffic designated area and the traffic separate scheme, traffic routes in other sea areas are not protected in Korea. Furthermore, due to increased cargo volume and ship size, there is a risk of collisions with marine facilities and marine pollution. In this study, maritime safety traffic routes that must be preserved are created to ensure the safety of maritime traffic and to prevent accidents with ecofriendly energy projects. To construct maritime traffic routes, the analysis area is divided, and ships are classified using big data. These data are used to estimate density, and 50% maritime traffic is chosen. This result is obtained by categorizing the main route, inner branch route, and outer branch route. The Korean maritime traffic route is constructed, and the width of the route is indicated. Furthermore, this route can be applied as a navigation route for maritime autonomous surface ships.

Highlights

  • The shipping industry is the most efficient mode of long-distance transportation [1].The sea is used by more than 80% of the world’s merchant ships, and various maritime traffic routes are used [2]

  • The maritime traffic routes must be chosen to ensure the safety of ships and maritime activities

  • Marine accidents on ships are very risky in terms of scale and environmental pollution

Summary

Introduction

The shipping industry is the most efficient mode of long-distance transportation [1].The sea is used by more than 80% of the world’s merchant ships, and various maritime traffic routes are used [2]. As the shipping industry develops and the demands of marine transportation increase over time, the size of ships has increased [3] This phenomenon is strengthening the route design standards for the safe operation of ships and the prevention of marine accidents in each country and institution [4]. In the area of ship routes, friction is increasing with ecofriendly energy projects, marine ecosystems, and fishing activities. This demonstrates the complexities of marine activities, which can result in marine accidents and environmental pollution, the consequences of which can be catastrophic [6]. A national main maritime route is developed and presented as a one-of-a-kind route for ship navigation
