Abstract
Designing a new sea port or new elements of the existing port infrastructure is a complex task solved in several stages. One of the problems to be solved is planning waterway and quay arrangements with stress put on the safety of ship traffic. As quality requirements in this respect have grown, traditional methods applied so far are gradually neglected driven away by methods of computer simulation that support a difficult and responsible process of port designing. 1 Introduction The general notion of navigational safety is superior when ship movement is involved. What it means is that a vessel at any time should comply with safety criteria and should not, by her movement, potentially pose threat to property, life or the natural environment. Maintaining desired standards o
