摘要

FIELD: transport.;SUBSTANCE: invention relates to ship building and navigation. Proposed method comprises continuous reception of satellite navigation data, radar data and that of identification system, ship location, computation of ship speed and keel clearance. Additionally, jobs are performed to obtain 3D picture of underwater situation all around the ship. For this sonars are used arranged fore and aft, at the left and right. In case potential dangerous objects are detected, their identification is carried out either by navigator or by identification hardware to select optimum procedure to avoid collision. Path of avoidance is selected.;EFFECT: safe navigation.;3 cl, 2 dwg
