ACTIVE MAPS FOR SMART PORTS

Over the last few years ports have gained a profound understanding of the critical role played by information and data. Despite significant advancements in technology, even the most sophisticated ports often grapple with isolated information systems that confine data within specific departments. Enter Active Maps. 

integrate

Integrate with existing port management systems and IoT, air and water sensors. 

visualise

Visualise Data from your systems and sensors placed in location on your estate map. 

analyse

Analyse live data or combine and compare with other data sets in a single window. 

communicate

Share this information with those who need it with live read only dashboards. 

Future success for all ports hinges on their ability to break these silos, encouraging information sharing and fostering collaboration not just internally but also with stakeholders.  

Active Maps operates by leveraging your existing data systems. Given that port data inherently encompasses location information, our solution offers a single screen interface that interconnects diverse datasets such as utilities, maritime infrastructure, transportation networks, bathymetry and charts, alongside dynamic data feeds like weather updates, air, water and tide information, and real-time ship locations. 

The strength of the Active Map platform lies in its prowess to bring together these diverse informational layers into a cohesive environment for everbody. This allows every member of the organization access to up to date information, facilitating informed decision-making on a day-to-day basis.  

What sort of data can active maps track?

air and emissions

Environmental sensors with multiple telemetry streams can be visualised with other data layers to show cause and effect relationships.

Water and Tidal

Hydrographic survey data with full analysis and data visualisation. Multibeam survey data can be combined with single beam seismic surveys to identify navigable sediment.

Live Camera Feeds

Live video feeds can include movement counts within field of view (people, vehicles, bicycles etc.)

AI and IOT Feeds

A wide range of different metrics can be tracked including dynamic updates of stock levels in sheds, bays and silos, with visualisation showing current levels of utilisation, and historical trends.

AIS Tracking

Visualisation of AIS (Automatic Identification System) to track and position vessels entering and leaving the port, and at berth.

Vessel Scheduler

Shipping agents can input and maintain vessel arrival and berth booking information, replacing existing manual systems.
