It is our great pleasure to invite you to take part in 14th International Conference on “Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation” TransNav 2021 organised jointly by the Faculty of Navigation, Gdynia Maritime University and The Nautical Institute from 16 to 18 June 2021 in Gdynia, Poland. The Conference is jointly organized by the Faculty of Navigation of the Gdynia Maritime University and The Nautical Institute.
The organisers aim at maintaining the good standard of the proceedings already achieved, and Taylor & Francis will once again be the chosen publisher, as with previous proceedings. Some papers can be published in 2021 and 2022 issues of TransNav, the International Journal on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation. This journal is indexed by the following services: Scopus, Web of Science Core Collection – Emerging Sources Citation Index, EBSCOhost, Directory of Open Access Journals, TRID Database and others. The full papers will be peer-reviewed before acceptance, to maintain the quality of the final publication in order to meet the requirements of the academic and research community. This Conference will rely on its Committees as the main contributing body to the review process and acceptance of papers.

The focus of International Conference on Marine Navigation and Safety of Sea Transportation TransNav is high-quality, scholarly research that addresses development, application and implications, in the field of maritime education and training (MET), nautical science, maritime safety management, maritime policy sciences, maritime industries, marine environment and energy technology. Subjects of papers include telecommunications, electronics, robotics, computer engineering, astronomy, mathematics, GNSS, geodesy, GIS, cartography, hydrography, meteorology, command and control, psychology, operational research, maritime traffic engineering, risk analysis, theoretical physics, operation in hostile environments, instrumentation, mechanical engineering, ergonomics, port and ocean engineering, financial planning and law. Also of interest are logistics, transport and mobility. The conference provides a forum for transportation researchers, scientiscts, engineers, navigators, ergonomists, and policy-makers with an interest in maritime researches.
The Conference will be held in Gdynia, the one of the youngest Polish cities, which is reflected in its appearance and atmosphere. Its bustling centre and harbour are visited mainly in the summer, due to its maritime location and the long sandy beaches. Throughout the entire year, it plays the role of one of Poland’s major seaports and a major shipbuilding area. Apart from the shipyard, Gdynia is a thriving centre of business, boasting the status of the most prosperous Polish city. Its close vicinity to two other towns, Gdansk and Sopot, which together form an urban agglomeration, helps to develop commercial activity.
On the website you can find the First Announcement. The Conference Website: http://transnav2021.umg.edu.pl is open now. We are waiting for the paper abstracts and your registration between 1th of September and 1st of November 2020.
