This study proposes a new method for analyzing images of ship wakes as knots. At first, I established the Python-based coding to get information from an image of a ship wake. The given coding in this manuscript is used to process the image of the ship wake and make it more distinct from other parts. Secondly, I explained the process of extracting mathematical information from the image. The information referred to the braid form was successfully obtained from the image of the ship wake. Consequently, I demonstrated to represent the image as the braid word in the braid group and how to analyzing the braid word by using invariants in knot theory.
