    Depending on length, width, draft and load, the ships that travel the Kiel Canal are divided into six different traffic groups. If two ships meet, an encounter number is determined. To do this, the traffic groups of the respective vehicles are simply added together. The highest permitted speed on the canal is 12 km/h (so-called canal speed).
    Along its entire length, the canal offers space in sections for encounters of totals 6, 7 or 8. Since, for reasons of space, not all ships can safely meet each other everywhere in the canal, there are a total of twelve alternative points - so-called "switches". There are no restrictions on the number of encounters in the switches; even the largest ships can meet each other safely here.


    The NOK traffic center monitors and regulates traffic on the canal using a distance-time diagram.
