Application Of IoT In Smart Harbours

Intelligent port is a service system based on modern electronic information technology oriented to port transport. Its prominent feature is to provide diversified information services for port service participants with the main line of information collection, processing, release, exchange, analysis and utilisation. It can be seen that smart ports urgently need to be closely integrated with IoT technology to achieve data sharing and stable and efficient port services.Application Of IoT In Smart Harbours

Technical Architecture of Smart Port Based on Internet of Things (IoT)

IoT-based smart port can be divided into a 3-layer system consisting of perception layer, network layer and application layer.

The perception layer of the smart port includes barcode labels and readers, RFID labels and readers, cameras, and various sensors in the operation equipment and operation areas in the port area. The main role of the perception layer is to sense and identify objects, and collect and capture information.

Intelligent port network layer includes wireless network access to the IoT management centre and information centre, and the use of the network’s ability to carry out intelligent processing of massive information part. That is to say, the network layer should not only have the ability of network, but also enhance the ability of information processing. At the same time, the data and information provided by the massive IoT are analysed and processed to improve the insight of the smart port and achieve the real intelligence of the port.

The smart port application layer is a solution that combines IoT technology with the needs of smart ports to achieve intelligent port applications. Intelligent ports ultimately realise the deep integration of information technology and intelligent ports through the application layer, which has a wide impact on the development of intelligent ports. The key to the application layer is to be able to meet the goal of intelligent communication and precise management of all aspects of the port management system in the process of information technology.

Intelligent port based on Internet of Things (IoT) can realise information sharing and dynamic collaboration between things, improve the efficiency, accuracy and visualisation of port operations, and is a modern intelligent port that is safe and smooth, environmentally friendly and efficient.

Internet of Things (IoT) technology has been initially researched and applied in current container terminals. With the further development of IoT technology, IoT technology will definitely further penetrate into the development and construction of container terminals, which has important economic value and research significance.Application Of IoT In Smart Harbours
