The processor 210 may wirelessly communicate in real time with the speed detection camera 110 provided in the harbor eyepiece facility through the IoT gateway 120, and the image recognition technology using the speed detection camera 110 in such a communication environment. This allows the collection of information (eg ship number or ship name) and speed of the vessel entering the dock area of the port facility. In other words, when the vessel enters the eyepiece area, the processor 210 may collect information of the ship through an image processing technique using the speed sensing camera 110 provided in the eyepiece area.

In this case, the processor 210 may transmit the current speed and the allowable speed limit to the corresponding vessel through communication with the vessel to adjust the speed of the vessel.

In operation S340, the processor 210 may collect the speed at which the vessel enters the eyepiece area in real time using the speed detection camera 110, in which case the vessel's speed is allowed at the time when the vessel enters the eyepiece area. If the speed limit is exceeded and the allowable speed limit is exceeded, the vessel may be set as a speeding vessel.

The processor 210 may impose a penalty on a vessel set as a speeding vessel and then designate and control a vessel of interest when docking at a corresponding port. When the damage to the eyepiece area is caused by the vessel set as the speeding vessel, the processor 210 may determine the damage state in real time through an image processing technology using the speed detection camera 110 as well as imposing a penalty. .

Furthermore, the processor 210 may record an image (still image or a video) of the corresponding vessel through the speed sensing camera 110 for the vessel set as the speeding vessel, and includes the image and the speed of the photographed vessel 100. Information to be delivered to the manager terminal 130 may be stored. In this case, the processor 210 may generate report information combining the number, name, speed, and image of the corresponding vessel for the vessel exceeding the allowable speed limit, and store the same on the manager terminal 130. In addition to the manager terminal 130, the report information on the speeding vessel can also be stored in the database system associated with the control server 200.

In addition, the processor 210 may report information including the image and speed of the vessel set as a speeding vessel for interworking with other agencies, and the servers of other organizations such as local governments (for example, police stations, insurance companies, etc.), marine and fisheries departments (not shown). ) Can be sent.
