Abstract
This report presents an operational computer program for the
minimal-time routing of single ships. Although written specifically
for VC2AP3 and VC2AP2 vessels operating in a described
area of the north Pacific ocean, the program can be modified
easily to provide routes for other type vessels in any ocean
area of the northern hemisphere. The method of incorporating
weather forecasts into the preparation of minimal-time ship
routes is described, and possible future developments are discussed.
