Abstract

The paper introduces a feasible frame for the reorganization and control of sea navigation (VIS system) in the accesswatenvay to the port of Split. In the paper a proposal for the introduction of a routing system on the traffic lane next to the port of Split is presented. A high-grade monitoring of seagoing navigation means increased safety and a higher protection of themarine environment. In this sense the validity of structuring AVRS system in the controlled area results from the ever-increasing number of transiting vessels, some of which carrying dangerous cargoes with the majority being leisure craft and passengerships. The need for installing the system arises as well fromthe unfavorable hydrographic conditions which affect navigation and reduce the level of safety in the traffic lane next to the port of Split. The described proposal of the VIS system foresees the opening of new navigable routes with radar and AIS equipment to be included for vessel monitoring. Their location and mode of operation are worked out in detail in this paper.
