This paper is a practical design and implementation of software developed to enhance the best use of the VDR. This software uses visual basic 6.0, and consists of VDR home page, and has a system configuration, operation, operation procedure, and operation in remote alarm panel, removing VDR and release of DRU. It was tried to comply with International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations. The system displayed information integrates position information from the Global Positioning System (GPS) and other navigational systems, such as Radar, echo sounder, gyrocompass, day and night cameras etc; as well as additional navigation‐related information, such as Sailing Directions. This project has a general background about all inputs to VDR, and concerned with the different inputs to this system such as GPS, Radar, Echo Sounder and Gyrocompass. It was demonstrated that the program deals with VDR, all interfaces with Rader, GPS, Speed log, etc. The software was preferred for design using visual basic 6.0. This program is a window based Software. Moreover, both the flow chart and the program steps are shown. (Browning et al, 2007; John Bell, 2008; Department of transportation, 2001)
