Overview

Port operators and stakeholders around the world are in the middle of a wave of change thanks to a convergence of multiple disruptive and transformative technologies that form part of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Traditional physical port infrastructure management, vessel operations, cargo handling and other trade activities have been transformed with advanced digitalisation, energy, automation and autonomous technologies. Smart Ports identifies and demystifies this radical new phase of port operations and port community management, including guidance on the key building blocks and road maps for embarking on the smart ports and smart port cities journey. Smart Ports presents case studies which look at a mix of ports from developed countries and the developing world on all continents ranging from Hamburg to Abidjan and Jakarta to Callao. The cases cover the background to smart ports, establishment of smart ports and the scope of services. The authors also give in-depth insights into new operational and business models, advanced technologies and issues with security and standards. There is extensive coverage of the benefits of integrating new technologies into traditional port structures and lessons learned.
