Estimation of Changes in Marine Traffic Flow Due to Installation of Virtual Buoys Based on the OZT Method

In this study, changes in maritime traffic flow due to the installation of virtual buoys were analysed from the perspective of collision, based on the obstacle zone by target (OZT) method. The existence of an OZT within ±2° in the bow direction is considered to be dangerous; all the OZTs that a vess...
