Abstract
An overview of weather routing and safe ship handling approaches in the future of shipping is presented. Weather routing provides the recommendations on transportation routes prior to and during ship sailing in various navigation constraints under global weather forecasts. Safe ship handling provides the recommendations on vessel position, orientation and speed conditions that should execute at the previously recommended route (with safe navigation conditions) under local weather conditions. Both approaches that complement each other should be implemented simultaneously to achieve optimal and safe ship navigation conditions. That will facilitate towards future navigation tools in integrated bridge systems, where the respective environmental pollution due to the shipping industry should be minimized.
