SHS(Ship-Handling Simulator) is virtual generation of vessel traffic situation under various environmental conditions. Recent, with the introduction of MSA(Maritime Safety Audit), SHS is being used as a key facility to determine the safety of navigation. However, the current audit techniques specified in the implementation guidance of MSA have been prepared by generalizing common procedures and evaluation methods used by institutions operating simulator systems. Therefore, they need to be reviewed and supplemented. This study analyzed the adequacy of current audit techniques based on the limitations and problems, then suggested the advanced scheme of SHS such as standardization of ship models, standard manoeuvring and evaluation method. The results of this research will contribute to improving the quantification and reliability of audit techniques used in the MSA as well as upgrading of the simulator system.
