SECTION I
Introduction:
Directorate General Of Lighthouses & Lightships is a subordinate office of the Ministry
of Shipping and provides service to enable the mariner to know the position with respect to a fixed
point on the land with the help of Visual Aids to Navigation such as lighthouses(193), Lightships(01),
Lighthouse tender vessels(03), Deep Sea Buoys(22), Wreck Marking Buoys(04) beacons and Radio
Aids to Navigation like Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS-23), Radar Beacons (Racons-
64), Automatic Identification System (AIS Base Stations-87) and Vessel Traffic Service in GOK and
Lightships etc. DGLL functions under Lighthouse Act 1927. For the purpose of effective
superintendence of Lighthouse and other aids to marine navigation, the Indian coast is divided into
seven regional directorates known as Lighthouse Districts with their headquarters at Jamnagar,
Mumbai, Cochin, Chennai, Visakhapatnam, Kolkata and Port Blair. A VTS Directorate at
Gandhidham, Gujarat is also functional.
1. Vessel Traffic Services:
Vessel Traffic Services is a service implemented by a competent authority, designed to
improve the safety and efficiency of navigation, safety of life at sea and the protection of the
marine environment. VTS is governed by SOLAS Chapter V Regulation 12 together with the
Guidelines for Vessel Traffic Services [IMO Resolution A.857(20)] adopted by the
International Maritime Organization on 27 November 1997. The VTS traffic image is
compiled and collected by means of advanced sensors such as radar, AIS, direction finding
and VHF or other co-operative systems and services. A modern VTS integrates all of the
information in to a single operator working environment for ease of use and in order to allow
for effective traffic organization and communication. All sensors are connected in single
network.
2. Vessel Traffic Service –Gulf of Kachchh: Directorate General of Lighthouses & Lightships has established VTS in Gulf of Kachchh in Feb,
2012. The Gulf of Kachchh stretches from 06816’ to 07030’ on the Eastern Longitude and 2214.5’
to 23 34.0’ on the Northern Latitude. VTS-GoK has been rendering services to mariners in Gulf
of Kutch on 24*7 basis. In terms of area of coverage, VTS-GoK is one of the largest VTS systems
with a setup of 9 Radars, 4 AIS Base stations, 2 Direction Finders in addition to Hydro and
Meteorological Sensors at suitable locations with Master Control Station at Kandla. It is catering to
requirement of 6 Ports with capability of extension to 10 Ports. The VTS-GOK serves the maritime
traffic of the Kandla Port Trust and various state owned/private ports of GMB. For this purpose 6 Port
Monitor stations are provided at Okha, Sikka,Vadinar, Navlakhi, Rozi Bunder and Kandla. VTS
Monitoring System has also been provided to the Indian Navy at Okha and Indian Coast Guard at
Okha & Jakhau for monitoring the movement of vessels plying in GoK waters.
