A STATISTICAL STUDY OF SHIP DOMAINS

A ship domain may be thought of as the sea around his ship which the navigator would like to keep free, with respect to other ships and fixed objects. This paper describes studies to determine the dimensions of a domain based on radar simulator performance and traffic surveys in the North Sea. It also suggests applications of this domain concept to marine traffic engineering problems and to traffic control schemes.
