It has an inseparable link to the development and prosperity of a nation. With the recent increase in the quantity of goods transported by sea, the size and speed of vessels have been increasing, which results in a growing number of marine accidents. The 「2013 Annual Summary of Korean Notices to Mariners」 has been published in accordance with the recommendations of the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) and the long-term development plan of KHOA to contribute to the safety of navigation. The 「2013 Annual Summary of Korean Notices to Mariners」 is the summary of weekly Korean notices to mariners issued in 2013. It also contains useful information such as “Chart of Firing and Bombing Exercise Areas in the Coast of Korea”, and “World Wide Navigational Warning Service (WWNWS).” This Annual Summary is published every year, and it is distributed to the NTM users free of charge. KHOA hopes that this Annual Summary can be used as a guide for safe navigation by all seafarers.
