A Framework for Surface Vessel Nautical-Behaviour Analysis towards Cognitive Situation Awareness

16 pagesPublished: July 12, 2024

Abstract

The rapidly advancing technological development allows for increased automation of traffic behaviour, including nautical systems. Innovative technologies for cognitive situa- tion modelling form the basis for an autonomous assessment of environmental conditions, which can then be used to realise autonomous navigation behaviour. Cutting-edge vehi- cles designed for autonomous operations are currently in development, demonstrating the capability to operate seamlessly even in busily frequented harbour areas and waterways. In this article, we present a novel framework for analysing the spatio-temporal nautical behaviour of maritime surface vessels. In a scenario, we assess and analyse navigation data gathered from the Kiel Fjord as part of a demonstration use case. The presented frame- work integrates a variety of different approaches and thus represents the basic technology for assessing and modelling ship behaviour prior to operational use, as well as detecting anomalous events during utilisation.
