10 IoT Enables a Living Digital Twin Situation Monitoring Resource Tracking Asset Conditions Consumption Meter People Flow Resource Monitoring Baggage Flow

11 IoT Enables a Living Digital Twin Our Applications Situation Monitoring Resource Tracking Asset Conditions Consumption Meter People Flow Resource Monitoring Baggage Flow

12 RFID Baggage Handling System

13 RFID Baggage Handling System 1st airport in the world to use RFID technology for both baggage sortation and reconciliation RFID Bag Tag Printers RFID shielding curtain At peak handles 110,000+ departure bags and 80,000+ arrival bags per day RFID antenna Sortation accuracy improved from 80% to over 97% by using RFID Dual Mode Handheld Terminal

14 with RFID Integration Take heavy lifting out of baggage handling Improve health and safety of handling staff Integrated reader to provide a faster and more accurate read rate of RFID bag tags RFID Reader Integrated 2018 ICT Award winner (Silver Award in Smart Logistics Category)

15 My Tag Enabled by RFID

16 My Tag Future Enhancement Partnership with other airports for Baggage Arrival Notification Global Whereabouts Tracking

17 IoT Enables a Living Digital Twin Our Applications Situation Monitoring Resource Tracking Asset Conditions Consumption Meter People Flow Resource Monitoring Baggage Flow

18 ibeacon Infrastructure Around 10,000 ibeacons installed throughout terminal buildings to provide digital landmarks HKG My Flight mobile app Leverages the ibeacon infrastructure to provide way-finding service 2018 ICT Award Winner (Gold Award in Smart Transport Category)

19 Free Wi-Fi Infrastructure 700+ Wi-Fi APs installed for Free Wi-Fi High Speed Wi-Fi Zones ~130,000 daily connections with close to 30,000 concurrent device counts at peak IoT sensors for Passenger Flow Analytics

20 IoT Enables a Living Digital Twin - Our Applications Situation Monitoring Resource Tracking Asset Conditions Consumption Meter People Flow Resource Monitoring Baggage Flow

21 Airport Ground Lighting Inspection Using High Speed Imaging 11,000+ lighting installations on both runways of 3.8km each Vehicle runs at 50km/h taking images per second Inspection can be completed in 5 minutes

22 Proof of Concept Indoor Patrol Robot Multiple types of IoT sensors Common autonomous platform + detachable functional unit on top Collaborative machine learning

23 Asset Condition Monitoring Runway Pavement Automatic Optical Inspection APM Plinth Optical Inspection and Vibration Detection Submarine Inspection for Seawater Inlet / Culvert Escalator Vibration Monitoring BHS Smart Sorter Inspector Lift Monitoring Voltage Dip Real-time Monitoring Drone Inspection for Runway / Buildings

24 IoT Enables a Living Digital Twin Our Applications Situation Monitoring Resource Tracking Asset Conditions Consumption Meter People Flow Resource Monitoring Baggage Flow

25 Vehicle Tracking System More than 3,500 airside vehicles from 100+ companies have GPS trackers installed to track their locations at the airfield Baggage tractors also have RFID tags installed to track the whereabouts within the Baggage Processing Area Tracked data can be used for incident investigation and resource management GPS tracker also enables driver authorization check and speeding alerts

26 Future Non Motorized GSE Tracking 8,000+ non-motorized Ground Service Equipment (GSE) Tracking of location and condition (e.g. whether dolly is loaded) Battery operated which can last for more than 1 year Good use case for the new wireless technologies

27 Proof of Concept - Autonomous Electric Tractor

28 IoT Enables a Living Digital Twin Our Applications Situation Monitoring Resource Tracking Asset Conditions Consumption Meter People Flow Resource Monitoring Baggage Flow

29 Future Smart CCTV System A number of video analytics applications to be implemented such as Facial identification/tracking People counting/crowd management Retail analytics Traffic Monitoring Revamp current CCTV infrastructure into fully digital at 4K resolution Video Analytics Applications

30 Video Analytics (VA) Applications we are planning Facial Recognition Crowd / Queue Management Retail Analysis Aircraft Parking Clearance Tailgating Intrusion Detection Left Passenger on APM Unattended Object Trolley Tracking System License Plate Recognition Vehicle Counting

31 Gesture Analytics for Baggage Handling Process Improvement KPI s Number of baggage handler worker Activity ratio Start/end time for serving each dolly Total time taken to unload each ULD

32 IoT Implementation requires consideration to Connectivity and IoT management and data platform Edge Devices Connectivity IoT Management and Data Platform Enterprise Applications

33 There is also a critical need for an Enterprise IoT Strategy Consider IoT for all new systems and infrastructure Use Gateways or Robotic sensors for existing systems Likely need different connectivity options for different use cases Seeks standardization based on category of applications Consider generic IoT Platform for common IoT applications Standardize on common data platform to facilitate big data analytics IoT Security across full Technology Stack Business Driven - High Impact Applications have higher priority API Platform for integration

34 IoT Security cannot be over-emphasized. OT (Operational Technology) Cyber Security is as important as IT Cyber Security Security has to be considered across all tiers of full IoT Technology Stack Device Layer Network Layer Infrastructure Layer Data Layer Application Layer Security Awareness and Incident Response Programs

35 Collaboration with the Industry on IoT Development Collaborate with the Airport Community Collaborate with the Research Community Consultation Startup Engagement Co-Development HKIA Technovation Conference 31

36 Together we create a smarter airport for Hong Kong
