What is a smart Port / What do we mean by “smarter” management?
At OceanWise, we believe to become a ‘smart port’ is a journey open to all. We believe it requires wise and informed decisions across the organisation, underpinned by good data management, so that you invest in the right tools. This ensures your investments result in improved performance and economic competitiveness, as well as improving safety, reducing risk, and ensuring environmental compliance.
Much of the focus on ‘smart ports’ is about the commercial and traffic operation. There is limited attention to the conservancy and environmental aspects of a port’s activities. These aspects require specialist knowledge around bathymetry, spatial mapping, weather and tidal monitoring data – all areas that OceanWise can demonstrate deep expertise and knowledge.
