Riverine Bangladesh, situated in the foothills of the Himalayas within the South Asian continent, boasts an extensive network of waterways. These water bodies encompass various features, including small hill ranges, meandering seasonal creeks, canals, picturesque rivers, and numerous tributaries. Numerous cities and ports have been established on both sides of these rivers. These waterways are intricately woven into the fabric of the country's civilization and agricultural system, serving as a vital mode of communication and cost-effective transportation for goods. In this context, it is important to acknowledge that waterway accidents have long been a recurring issue in Bangladesh. Many individuals suffer injuries, and fatalities, or go missing each year due to maritime accidents. When a major maritime accident occurs, there is a temporary outcry, and both the media and concerned authorities conduct brief investigations. However, this research delves into the analysis of accident data from 1995 to 2019, aiming to identify the key factors contributing to accidents by applying multiple linear regression theory in various mathematical configurations. The model's validity has been affirmed through the utilization of diverse datasets. Furthermore, the study unveils accident-prone regions and presents a time-based breakdown of accident occurrences, offering a comprehensive understanding of accident patterns. The insights garnered from this study can potentially guide stakeholders and relevant authorities in making informed decisions to proactively mitigate waterway accidents. Finally, this study offers recommendations for reducing the number of accident path planning and accident avoidance and a theoretical foundation for driver assistance systems.

... Some accidents have occurred because of overloading; technical problems; collisions with other ships; weather and water conditions; and social, economic, and political structures [3,4]. Examples include the Le Joola disaster in 2002, the Shariatpur-1 disaster in 2012, and the Sewol Ferry disaster in 2014 [4][5][6][7]. Especially in the case of South Korea, the number of maritime traffic accidents increased from 1093 cases (1306 vessels involved) to 2307 cases (2549 vessels involved) between 2013 and 2016 [8]. ...
This research is a pilot study to develop a maritime traffic control system that supports the decision-making process of control officers, and to evaluate the usability of a prototype tool developed in this study. The study analyzed the movements of multiple vessels through automatic identification system (AIS) data using one of the existing methodologies in GIScience, the RElative MOtion (REMO) approach. The REMO approach in this study measured the relative speed, delta-speed, and the azimuth of each vessel per time unit. The study visualized the results on electronic navigational charts in the prototype tool developed, V-REMO. In addition, the study conducted a user evaluation to assess the user interface (UI) of V-REMO and to future enhance the usability. The general usability of V-REMO, the data visualization, and the readability of information in the UI were tested through in-depth interviews. The results of the user evaluation showed that the users needed changes in the size, position, colors, and transparency of the trajectory symbols in the digital chartmap view of V-REMO for better readability and easier manipulation. The users also indicated a need for multiple color schemes for the spatial data and more landmark information about the study area in the chartmap view.

Bangladesh has a vast network of inland waterways. This allows easier and cheaper transportation to the people of this low-income nation. However, frequent accidents in inland waterways have caused significant loss of human lives and properties. This study analyzes the accident data of an era (2008–2019) collected from the Department of Shipping of Bangladesh. However, it is revealed that due to lack of a proper accident database, many accident parameters and detailed information are not available. The results indicate that most of the accidents and casualties are caused by collision among the vessels. Besides, the predominant portion of overall casualty is fatality. Moreover, 57.6% fatalities take place during the four months of February to May. Furthermore, around half of the accidents are caused by the cargo ships and trawlers. It is also found that the most accident-prone zone is the southern part of the country. Finally, some recommendations are proposed for improvement of inland water transport safety of this low-income country.

An automated embedded system with overweight and location detection of a vessel has been planned, developed and executed. To eliminate overweight issues and able to locate the vessel for stopping accidents, an embedded system has been developed. Based on “Archimedes Principle Formula” an algorithm has been formed, it works on data that have been collected by the “water floating switch sensor”. A sensor called “Water floating switch” used to detect the exceeding water level and send the data to the server purpose of monitoring an overweight issue. Programming language (python) with its default library has been utilized to code and some hardware components (Like. raspberry pi B, microcontroller, water floating switch, GPS antenna, monitor, etc) are used for the significant execution of the algorithm. This embedded system can be accomplished in any type of vessel, utilize this system above the vessel as well as a passenger vessel, general cargo vessel, etc.

Inland water transport is one of the most popular modes of transport in Bangladesh. It allows very easy access to any region of the country and is also cheaper than the other modes of transports. The aim of the study is to investigate the contemporary safety issues related to inland water transportation in Bangladesh. The statistical analysis is conducted based on the inland waterway accident data collected from the Department of Shipping and Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Authority (BIWTA). The study considers 268 accidental events during the period of 2005 to 2017 in which 438 vessels were involved. The analysis revealed that collision (57.8%) is the leading cause of inland water transport accidents. A major finding of the study is that cargo vessel is the dominant type of vessels responsible for the accidents. Besides most of the cargo vessels are foundered after the accidents. It is also found that the major portion of the overall casualty is the fatality. The average fatality per accident ratio is high for the accidents related to overload & stability failure and stormy weather. Besides, most of the fatalities are involved in collision accidents. Dhaka to Barishal route has been found to be the most vulnerable waterway route in Bangladesh. During the study, it was found that many important factors and parameters of the accidental event are not reported properly due to a significant deficiency in the accident reporting system. Based on the analysis a number of recommendations have been put forward to mitigate the accidents in the inland waterways of Bangladesh and improve the safety situation.
... Additionally, ferry services have different safety concerns for their carriage of large numbers of passengers. For example, overloading and overcrowding is a unique issue in the ferry services context (Rahman & Rosli, 2014). Also predeparture safety education similar to airplane safety instructions for passengers (Hystad, Olaniyan, & Eid, 2016), crew training for emergency scenarios (Baldauf, Schr€ oder-Hinrichs, Kataria, Benedict, & Tuschling, 2016), and effective search and rescue efforts are all needed in this context to alleviate fatal consequences. ...
... The combination of overloaded, structurally unsound vessels and sudden unfavorable weather explains many of the fatalities. Numerous technical solutions are proposed in response to this risk factor, for instance, a conceptual model concerning an innovative overloaded sensor has been designed to detect and reduce the overload problem of passenger ships (Rahman & Rosli, 2014). ...
Ferry transportation plays a crucial role in domestic and regional movement of people and goods between islands, along the coast and inland waterways, though this great dependence often contradicts with a high rate of ferry accidents, especially in Southeast Asia and the African Great Lakes region. Efforts to reduce ferry accidents are impaired by lack of complete and reliable data for accident analysis. This article analyzes the shortcomings of existing maritime accident databases from the perspective of ferry safety research and develops a dedicated worldwide ferry safety database using relational database approach to address the shortcomings and better facilitate ferry safety management—Ferry-SAFEDB. With this database structure, information related to ferry safety can be organized in a logical way that not only strengthens the efficiency and reliability of data maintenance, but also augments the amount of information to form a comprehensive information management platform and conduct data-driven analyses. Lastly, a sample database application is empirically conducted with the major ferry accidents over the past 17 years. The preliminary study shows that the proposed Ferry-SAFEDB is feasible and has the real-world implications for ferry safety efforts.
... In the developed countries the systems used to detect this overloading are often not used in third world countries mostly because of their price, complexity and need of skilled engineer. Other so called innovative features also adds more complexity and have requirement for additional measuring devices (Xie et al., 2012;Rahman and Rosli, 2014). In a nutshell, this work is an approach to develop and test the performance of an economically viable overload detection system with pipe and float mechanism to address the problem that has been the culprit behind at least one of every five maritime accidents occurring in third world countries like Bangladesh. ...
Developing nations are a victim of numerous maritime accidents each year, and a large portion of which are due to overloaded vehicles causing casualties and loss of properties. Current methods for detecting overloaded vehicles are sensor based and image processing based systems but they are sometimes significantly expensive or their analysis and problem detection are excruciatingly complex. Therefore, keeping the economic prospects in mind, in this research endeavor a simple overload detection system is designed and developed that is very low-cost and can be manufactured by using locally available materials. The system developed is mainly for the maritime vehicles of Bangladesh but if it is tested with commercial cruise/cargo ships, then it can prove its effectiveness for much wider range of ships.
... Several technologies exist to count individuals as they pass an entry point and alert staff members after capacity has been reached, although these systems cannot always take into account the extra weight of infants and hand-held baggage. A weight-sensing system of the kind used in elevators could overcome this hurdle, and an accompanying alarm that is triggered when weight limits are reached could prevent ships from sailing until the extra load is removed (Rahman and Rosli 2014). ...
Ferries and other passenger vessels provide a crucial mode of transportation for many in the developing world, especially in archipelagic nations like Indonesia and in river delta nations like Bangladesh. However, this dependence on passenger vessels coincides with a high rate of accidents and fatalities in many countries, linked to purchase of old, substandard, and/or inappropriate vessels in low-income nations; overcrowding; inadequate training; and sudden hazardous weather. Any serious attempt to decrease the number and fatality count of ferry accidents in the developing world must have a complete record of past incidents on which to draw. This report compiles detailed information on the 232 major accidents that occurred around the world between 2000 and 2014. It assesses the prevalence of various common factors in ferry accidents, including human error, hazardous weather, and overcrowding, and makes recommendations for future research into the prevention of ferry accidents.
