Abstract
VTS has been operated at the ports and coastal areas in order to prevent maritime accidents and improve transport efficiency, as described in IMO Resolution A.857(20), Guideline for VTS. To reduce the ship collision, we need to understand the factors of the traffic characteristics which is related with collisions. Although many considerable studies have been conducted over the past several years to prevent ship collisions, the results are not practical. We investigated the correlation among statistical parameters of vessel speed, traffic flow, and potential collision rate in VTS area. Finally, This research provides persuasive evidence to enforce an safe speed to reduce ship collisions in VTS area.
