CADMUSS – Collision Avoidance Domain-Method Used by Ships and aShore
Description: In the project, a method is being developed to identify near-accidents of ships. For this purpose, the technical limits of the ships but also the personal safety area of the nautical officers will be examined. These can then be used for the development of new guidelines for vessel operations.
A special application besides the traffic centers is the insurance industry. Using the method developed here, it becomes possible to analytically evaluate the behavior of vessels in the past. Shipowners who train their crews sufficiently well and thus reduce the frequency of risky maneuvers will gain an advantage.
There are several thousand maritime accidents per year. Also, more than 100 ships are lost every year. The causes for this can be manifold. Often, several factors contribute to the incident. However, especially in the case of shipping accidents involving personal injury, an official investigation is initiated to determine the background.
