Abstract
Navigational safety is an important factor for the ship navigation. In this research, the study area is the Malacca Strait. The Malacca Straits has a high level of danger. The navigator should be careful when passing through the strait. Based on the survey, about 85% of the navigator was worried when passing through the area of Straits. Automatic Identification System (AIS) data investigation was conducted on August 2012. Tanker passes through the Malacca Strait about 45% per day. This study focused on the analysis of danger index in Tanker. Results from this study can be used as input to all stakeholders to improve safety while Tanker passes through the Malacca Strait. Scenario for establishing danger Index is taken from the AIS data which is installed in the UTM Malaysia. In detail, danger index was calculated using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) combining with the Automatic Identification System (AIS) data and Geographic Information System (GIS).
Highlights
Ship safety of navigation is very important in the maritime issue
Is the resulting calculation of the danger score for a tanker that passed through the Malacca Straits on 01/06/2012 at 16.00
Based on Automatic Identification System (AIS) data, we find the largest volume of data is at 16.00 h
Summary
Malacca Straits is busy area in the world. It has a very strategic area in the shipping activities and international trade which was connect countries in West Asia, South East Asia and East Asia. Navigators should take carefully when navigate the ship. They should know the hazard map in that area. The results of the safety index or danger score is very important to inform the crew of ship to be more careful and prioritize safety while sailing
