Connect2SmallPorts Portathon Baltic 2019 I Port Technology Hackathon

Participants had to develop advanced solutions for modern ports of today and the future. There were four main directions where teams could have implemented their creativity: digitalization in logistics, automated port equipment, digital port terminals, and smart transport ecosystems.

Working on the last topic the team of Hochschule Wismar represented by Tim Kretzschmar, Phillip Herbert studying Business informatics (bachelor) and Olesia Ovchinnikova from International management (master) offered a concept called Predictive Scheduling which has to increase overall effectiveness of the ports by using the convergence of technologies such as AI, DLT, IoT, SAT. Other teams had presented such solutions as a robot, mathematic model, project of relocation of one of the port’s terminal, prioritizing of containers, etc.

The solutions offered during the hackathon aimed to solve the specific problems of Klaipeda port, but the general ideas of these solutions could be applicable for the port of Wismar as well.
