낚시어선 이용객은 2019년 약 4백8십만명에 이르고 있으며 지속적으로 증가추세에 있다. 낚시어선 해양사고 증가로 국민들은 낚시어선에 대한 불안과 안전정책에 대한 불신이 높아지고 있다. 낚시어선 해양사고 중 충돌사고와 좌초사고는 발생 척수와 인명피해가 가장 높게 나타났다. 낚시어선 충돌사고와 좌초사고 발생 시 해상상태를 분석하여 보면 국지적으로 발생하는 안개 등기상요인이 사고원인으로 작용하고 있다. 해상의 안개는 해역, 계절 등 요인에 따라 발생지역과이동경로가 다양하다. 해상에서 안개 발생 시 시시각각 변화하는 안개정보를 신속⋅정확하게 수집⋅분석하여 낚시어선 선장에게 위험경보를 전파하여 해양사고를 방지 할수 있다. 해상기상정보를 바탕으로 해상상태별 낚시어선 안전조업통제제도를 마련하여 안전조업이 가능할 것이다.
