Development of Risk Based Collision (RBC) Model for Tanker Ship Using AIS Data in the Malacca Straits

Analysis of ship collision is very important to establish in the field of maritime transport, especially in areas that have a high degree of risk. Strait of Malacca is international shipping that has a high degree of risk. In these areas, tankers have a high degree of probability of an accident. Based on AIS (Automatic Identification System), Tanker has seen the highest density of traffic volume density, reaching approximately 50% every day. In this paper, a risk analysis performed using the actual data from AIS. In this case, the value of the CPA (Closest Point Approach) and TCPA (Time to Closest Point Approach) obtained from AIS is used to generate the value of risk. After we know the value of a risk, it must be measures to avoid accidents ship on sea transportation. AIS data in this study were drawn from the AIS receiver that has been installed in Malaysia UTM.
