The simulation and program implementation approaches are presented in the tasks of determining the periods of loss of control due to the fault
of the human factor in the operation of marine transport while carrying the
navigation watch. Experiments have been carried out confirming the problem of
the negative influence of the human factor on the example of navigational tasks
in the Bosphorus and Hong Kong Straits. Automated tools have been developed
to identify hazardous areas for navigation on location mapping by analyzing the
accident geolocation in the Hong Kong Strait and the Bosphorus, which is a decision support system for emergency situations. A software module has been
developed that makes it possible to identify the time periods for the manifestation of the human factor of the navigator by analyzing the ECDIS database in
real time. Mathematical models of the triggering of the vessel automated course
alteration system (VACA) and the actions of the navigator when controlling/navigating the vessel in difficult maneuvering zones are proposed.
