NYK Line and its group companies have been conducting research projects towards autonomous ship operation. This paper shows the structure of our Action Planning System (APS), which integrates several support functions with man-machine interface, targeted at supporting decision making for seafarers. By conducting risk assessment with reference to class guidelines for autonomous ships, the safety of APS is verified. This paper also introduces our demonstration experiment of this system, which will be conducted in FY2019.
