Abstract

Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) serves a critical function in maintaining maritime safety and regulating ship traffic order, particularly in congested waterways such as Surabaya's West Shipping Channel. This system is designed to facilitate organized vessel movements, thereby minimizing accident risks and regulatory violations. However, the effectiveness of VTS in supporting the monitoring of ship movement order and berthing areas requires further investigation. This study analyzes the effectiveness of Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) in supporting the monitoring of ship movement order and berthing areas within Surabaya's West Shipping Channel. The research employs a quantitative methodology utilizing simple linear regression analysis. Data collection was conducted through observation and secondary data analysis, subsequently processed using SPSS 22 software. The findings demonstrate that VTS effectiveness significantly influences order monitoring, with a significance value of 0.001 (p < 0.05). The coefficient of determination indicates a value of 29.1%, signifying that VTS effectiveness contributes to the orderliness of ship movements and berthing areas. The regression equation reveals that each unit increase in VTS effectiveness results in a 0.470 unit improvement in order monitoring.
