The process of choosing a trajectory in a restricted area requires knowing not only the area itself, but also the current and future location of other objects moving within it. This issue is relatively simple in case when the objects being tracked do not change the direction of movement and speed. Often, however, the objects being tracked have a nuanced effect, which results in the necessity to correct the determined trajectory of the own object. Such information allows to minimize the risk of

This article proposes an algorithm for the detection of changes in the direction of motion and the speed of the object being tracked. The solutions proposed in the article are a development of previous studies, including the search for the optimal object route in a restricted area. The authors propose an algorithm for applications in decision support systems for sea navigation, but it can also be successfully used in other areas of transport.
