Türkiye’nin Denizel Çevre Yönetimi Karar Destek Sistemi

Abstract

Due to the dynamic nature of the variables within its scope, “Marine Environment” is a field that requires quick and effective decisions by the responsible authoritiesAfter an accident at sea, due to the variables such as, sea condition, current and wind, ship traffic, movements of polluting fuel, etc. it is necessary to intervene with correct and timely measures, otherwise the size of the loss of life and property increases.The increaing share of maritime transport among the modes of transport has also increased the ship traffic in the seas. The structure of the marine environ-ment has made it impossible for countries to intervene in large-scale maritime accidents on their own, and in this context, a number of international conventions have been put into effect since the beginning of the 2000s on the plan and organizational structure of the coordinated response with the sharing of information and tecnical capabili-ties between countries. The speed and efficiency of decisions in responding to these events at sea requires a comp-rehensive mechanism that will ensure the real-time production of variables and their flow between stakeholders. This study; It envisages a decision support system that will enable real-time integration and information sharing of authorities responsible for the management of Turkey's marine environment. For this purpose, the stakeholders and variables in the process and how they can be integrated in an organization are revealed.
