The demands of running global supply chains are more challenging than ever. Cargo transportation and logistics have always been complex, but now the industry must also manage key market trends: Global transport disruptions caused by pandemics, earthquakes and other natural disasters, accidents, geopolitics, cyberattacks, and demand peaks create severe supply chain congestions at global and local level.

The rapid adoption of cloud computing and the Internet of Things (IoT) is ushering in billions of connected devices that, left unsecured, represent a significant risk to businesses and consumers. In 2018, Gartner forcasted that the number for connected things would grow to 25 billion by 2021.1 Connected things include a variety of IoT endpoint devices across several critical infrastructure segments, including utilities, automotive, healthcare, retail, and building automation. In these crucial sectors, Gartner estimates that the installed base of IoT endpoints will reach 5.8 billion by the end of 2020.2

The adoption of the “Initial International Maritime Organization (IMO) Strategy on Reduction of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions from Ships” by IMO Resolution MEPC.304(72) in April 2018 demonstrates IMO’s commitment to support the Paris Agreement. The IMO strategy includes initial targets to reduce (as compared to 2008 levels) the average carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per “transport work” by at least 40 percent by 2030, aiming to pursue 70 percent reduction by 2050; and an ambition to reduce the total annual GHG emissions from shipping by at least 50 percent by 2050. Technical approaches, operational approaches and alternative fuels may be used to achieve these goals.

Ports and terminals have become increasingly automated, necessitating accurate and reliable technologies to keep operations running smoothly while protecting personnel safety. Avoiding collisions is especially critical to prevent potentially hazardous accidents, costly downtime, and damage to equipment. LiDAR solutions enable safety, security, and efficiency at ports and terminals around the world. With powerful 3D visualisation, long ranges, and resilience to the harshest environment day or night, 3D LiDAR sensors solve a wide range of critical applications including positioning, navigation and collision avoidance, bulk material profiling, and perimeter security and intrusion detection.

We are in the middle of an explosion in new data on the ocean, creating enormous potential for advances in our understanding and stewardship of ocean resources. An exponential increase in the number and variety of ocean observing systems and other new data sources has created the prospect of a digital ocean ecosystem. Advances in processing techniques and visualisation are rapidly expanding our ability to extract information from those data, and are enabling a wide array of tools to provide real-time information in actionable form to decision-makers, such as policymakers, resource managers, resource users, consumers and citizens.
