Abstract
This study enacted the Ship Traffic Control Act in 2019 to reduce the risk of marine accidents and improve the safety and efficiency of ship traffic, and the Korea Coast Guard operates ports and coastal VTS. Ship traffic control provides safety information and port operation information to ships by installing and operating equipment capable of detecting the location of ships and communicating with ships, and is essential for the safety of ship traffic. However, institutions that provide safety information to ships are distributed to various institutions as well as the Korea Coast Guard, and operate inefficiently, analyzing the operation of maritime traffic safety information in preparation for marine accidents.
