Abstract

Effective management of the electronic nautical charts (ENCs) preparation process using the electronic chart display and information system (ECDIS) is crucial to ensure the safety of ships. Delays or failures in this process can prevent the creation of a safe voyage plan and result in delays or maritime accidents, which may damage a company's reputation. To identify risk factors causing such issues, the quadratic mean method-based Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process was used to weigh and determine the most prominent ones. Additionally, the study proposes specific solutions to eliminate each risk factor. The study's outputs are expected to improve the management of ENC preparation, which is a frequent task for ships using electronic navigation.
