Web-based Implementation for Marine Casualty Information on Google Map

Safety navigation of vessels is always the most important issue in maritime field. Recently, according to increasing the use of electronic equipment onboard, the requests for safety related information services have been growing up. To support this, International Hydrographic Organization suggests the concept of common maritime data structure. Since 2010, S-100 standard and relative product specifications have been defined as a part of that concept, covering the electronic navigational chart data and safe navigation related data. In this paper, we introduce an empirical application of S-100 standard, applied to marine casualty information. We analyze marine casualty cases reported in Korea for recent four years, make XML documents with schema design and then implement an application to present the marine casualty information on google map.
