ON NUMERICAL EXPERIMENTS FOR SHIP COLLISION AVOIDANCE METHODS RESEARCH
Current paper is about programming tools for scientific research in field of ship collision avoidance. The developed software system for collecting traffic data from the open sea areas of Internet sources allows you to create arrays retrospective of vessel traffic data. The data thus obtained can be used in the planning and formulation of computational experiments. These allow you to experience the developed models, methods and algorithms as generated on the basis of their typical paths, and the data of the real movement of vessels in a particular area. This allows the verification procedures established for suitability for use in specific conditions and the identification of the boundaries of their applicability. It showed virtually implemented method of collecting and processing the necessary data from the open www.marinetraffic.com site. Considered arising from this problem and their solution, shows the results of the information system on the example of water areas of the ports of Vladivostok, Nakhodka, Tsugaru Strait and Tokyo Bay.
