    Abstract: A method for assisting the guidance of a surface vessel intended to tow an underwater device, the method includes a) discretizing the geographical sector around the surface vessel into a plurality of zones, with each zone being classified according to a degree of accessibility from among a set of degrees of accessibility; b) computing a set of candidate trajectories of the surface vessel in the geographical sector, with each candidate trajectory corresponding to a different gyration rate from the current position of the surface vessel; c) classifying each candidate trajectory as a function of the degree of accessibility of the zone of the geographical sector traversed by the possible trajectory, and as a function of the feasibility of one or more predefined actions on the candidate trajectory; d) generating a display of the zones and of the candidate trajectories on a human-machine interface, as a function of their classification and/or a transmission of instructions relating to the actions.
