Vessel grounding accidents may cause serious pollution; loss of lives and properties at sea, so the grounding warning has been an important task of VTS (Vessel Traffic Service). In the past, the grounding was predicted manually due to technical constraints, and a lot of grounding accidents occurred as result of human error and negligence. The appearance and popularity of AIS (Automatic Identification System) and ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information System) made it possible for VTS to warn the grounding of vessels automatically. With the ship's position, velocity, rate of turn, position error, course error, draft, etc., which are provided by the AIS on board, we develops a new model entitled "SAGA" (Search Area for Grounding Alert) to predict grounding. When collision between the SAGA model and seabed terrain model is detected, an alert will be given by VTS.
