Article presents the applications designed to perform automatic communication as a support
for navigators steering their ships. Authors took into consideration the conversation between
navigators in the collision situation that occurred at North Sea basin. The performed incorrect communication has been presented and alternative to it has been proposed. The results of
simulation made with use of the prototype of automatic communication and negotiation
system has been shown.
