VTS系统在长江海事系统中的应用探讨

Discussion on the Application of VTS System in Yangtze River Maritime System

摘要: VTS即船舶交通管理系统，这个系统在1997年的《VTS指南》IMO A.857 (20)号决议中确认。VTS是由一个适任的主管机关实施的，用于改善船舶安全和效率及保护环境的服务。在VTS区域内，这种服务应能影响通航并对变化的通航形势作出反应。多年来，我国在沿海各主要港口和长江主要航段相继建立了具有一定先进技术水平的VTS系统，使我国对船舶交通安全管理具备了较高水平的硬件环境。长江海事局VTS系统在经过十几年的建设后取得了一定的成果，但在其发展和不断完善的过程中仍存在一些问题，特别是对于安庆海事局VTS系统来说，解决好这些问题将能更好地发挥VTS的安全监管作用。文中通过分析这些问题，为长江海事系统VTS日常维护及解决实际问题具有借鉴作用。

Abstract: VTS is the Vessel Traffic Management System, which is recognized in the 1997 VTS Guidelines IMO Resolution A.857 (20). VTS is a service implemented by a competent authority to improve the safety and efficiency of ships and protect the environment. Within the VTS area, such services should be able to influence traffic and respond to changing traffic conditions. For many years, the VTS system with certain advanced technology has been established in the main coastal ports and the main sec-tions of the Yangtze River, which makes our country have a high level of hardware environment for ship traffic safety management. After more than ten years of construction, the VTS system of Yang-tze River Maritime Safety Administration has achieved certain results, but there are still some problems in its development and continuous improvement, especially for the VTS system of Anqing Maritime Safety Administration, solving these problems will better play the role of VTS safety su-pervision. By analyzing these problems, the paper can provide reference for the daily maintenance of VTS in Yangtze River maritime system and solving practical problems.
