Includes the digital transformation of port processes, by collecting new data, evolving and learning.
The innovations used within digital ports include:
- Robotics – by intergrating automated systems
- Process Automation – minimising human involvement in processes by using technologies such as driverless trucks, drones and crewless vessels
- Decision-making automation – planning optimization such as the automation of vehicle and equipment scheduling.
- Digitalisation – the use of technologies for all operations such as IoT, big data, 5G and AI.
Using these innovations a Digital Port can have more efficient supply chain management and operations, turning them into Smart Ports.
