Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document presents the results of a study of Aids-to-Navigation Systems in the harbor and harbor entrance environment. The objectives of this Phase I study were to develop a preliminary methodology to clearly identify the essential elements of the process of navigation, and to develop a preliminary analytical model to evaluate systems of aids to navigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research reported here is part of the United States Coast Guard's Performance of Aids to Navigation Systems Project. The objective of the project is to provide guidelines for evaluation and design of AN systems in restricted waterways. The major effort has been the evaluation of aid systems under a variety of conditions on a marine simulator developed for the project. This report describes the validation of the simulator by comparing performance data collected at sea with performance data collected on the simulator. Ships were tracked electronically at sea and other data was collected manually in Chesapeake Bay in the approach to Baltimore, Maryland and Narragansett Bay in the approach to Providence, Rhode Island. The conditions observed in these restricted waterways were modeled on the USCCG/SA simulator and pilot performance was compared. This evaluation identifies the strengths and limitations of the simulator and the need for possible adjustments.

Book excerpt: This report describes one of a series of man-in-the-loop simulation studies designed to assist the USCG in the design and evaluation of systems of aids to navigation. Previous studies have examined various configurations of buoys in the absence of any other visible objects. The present study was undertaken to determine the extent to which representative visual surroundings would augment the effectiveness of a system of aids. In addition to comparing performance in the presence of a typical visual scene of the visual environment were varied in order to better define the means by which the visual scene affords improved performance. The results indicated that aids to navigation are in fact more effective in typical visual surroundings than they are with no other objects in the scene. It was influenced by a variety of factors including the density of objects in the scene and the distance of objects from the waterway. However, the presence of a visual environment was generally not found to improve performance for a suboptimal buoy configuration to that of an optimal configuration. The implications of the experiment for waterways design are discussed, and guidelines for the evaluation of visual environments are presented. (FR).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research reported here is part of the United States Coast Guard's Performance of Aids to Navigation (AN) Systems Project. The objective of the project is to provide guidelines for evaluation and design of AN systems in restricted waterways. The major effort has been the simulator evaluation of aid systems under a variety of conditions. This experiment was designed to evaluate aid arrangements, identified as versatile and high-performing in a variety of situations, in their support of meeting traffic. The data provide a realistic-to-conservative estimate of the risk of collision when large ships meet in narrow channels. The simulation included a realistic view of the traffic ship, bank and ship interaction efforts and an unpredictability to the track on which the traffic ship approached. Originator-supplied keywords: Marine simulation; Risk of collision; Aids to navigation system; Marine piloting; Shiphandling; Restricted waterways.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is part of the U.S. Coast Guard's Performance of Aids to Navigation (AN) Systems Project. The objective of this project is to provide guidelines for evaluation and design of AN systems in restricted waterways. The major effort has been the evaluation of aid systems under a variety of conditions on a marine simulator developed for the project at Ship Analytics, Inc., North Stonington, Conn. This report describes the implementation task which was designed to experimentally test the draft manual's guidelines for evaluation and design of AN systems in restricted waterways. The Upper Narragansett Bay near Providence, Rhode Island, was the channel in which the draft manual's recommendations were implemented. Data was primarily collected at sea in both the original and modified channel. The at-sea data collection electronically tracked 30,000 dwt tankers inbound in the Upper Narragansett Bay. Data was also collected in the marine simulator developed for the project at Ship Analytics, Inc. Keywords: At-sea data collection; Risk assessment; Risk management; Ship tracking; Buoy placement piloting; Ship bridge simulator; and Short range aids to navigation.
