Abstract
According to IMB annual report 2011, Piracy activity of recent years is increasing around the world. This study investigates spatial pattern of piracy activity using GIS based-hazard map. Hazard map is a useful tool for spatial planning and providing an image of the most vulnerable areas. The authors have focused attention on distribution of piracy incidents in South East Asia, the hazard map by analyzing directional distribution and kernel density estimation from each piracy location is created for maritime security. Nowadays, the number of AIS (Automatic Identification System)-equipped ships is increasing under the international convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS). The AIS is automatically providing navigation information to other ships and coastal authorities to improve the maritime safety. We hope that an analyzing AIS data is also an effective solution for investigating ship accident against illegal activity. In this paper, an approach for kinetic analysis of actual attacks using AIS data with Satellite image is presented.
