Abstract
The purpose is to highly accurately estimate information indicating a ship state up to the point of docking. A navigation assistance device includes a ship state detection sensor and processing circuitry. The ship state detection sensor detects a bow azimuth. The processing circuitry detects a quay line of a quay. The processing circuitry calculates a drift angle which is an angle formed between a bow stern direction of a ship and a direction in which the quay line extends, based on the bow azimuth and the quay line.
