Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing traffic control service are disclosed herein. The apparatus for providing traffic control service includes a multi-sensor fusion processing unit, an image object tracking and combination unit, and an information provision unit. The multi-sensor fusion processing unit generates the location information of a vessel by fusing radar information and automatic identification system (AIS) information together.

In the method, vessels anchored in an anchorage are monitored. The anchorage is defined as a group, and the group of the anchored vessels is managed. Leaving of a vessel, needing to deviate from the anchorage, from the group is controlled. If a vessel recognized as a vessel identical to one that left the group requests anchoring after a predetermined period of time has elapsed, the anchoring-requesting vessel is controlled.
