NYK Study On Avoiding Collisions

NYK reported on its process in developing (a) functions to facilitate judgement related to avoiding risk of collision.

Using the large ship-handling simulator at Japan Marine Science Inc., NYK accumulated data on how experienced captains of large merchant vessels avoid the risk of collision, and then digitalized that data.

Usually, officers make a prediction, a judgment of the risk of collision based on their own experience, but each person’s sense of danger differs.

The usage of accumulated data to develop common standards will help officers to appropriately judge risk and prevent collisions.
