1 Motivations of IoT and ITS technological development in Sea Ports Paolo Pagano Consorzio Nazionale Inter-universitario per le Telecomunicazioni (CNIT) Laboratorio Nazionale di Reti Fotoniche, Pisa (I) on behalf of Livorno Port Authority

2 Outline Objectives The relevance of Sea Ports as Large Scale Infrastructures The Use Cases IoT ecosystems in Sea Ports technology on the filed: access and data handling and custodial ITS development in our agenda

3 Sea Ports as smart spaces Sea Ports are remarkable smart spaces : where people, implanted sensors, and vehicles interact; functions and services are targeted to humans and machines; services depend on the chain connecting sensors and information systems through networks. The innovation target for a Sea Port: more green; safer and more efficient; more interconnected.

4 We promote our settlement Seaports are remarkable places where to exploit technological innovation: large scale infrastructures (10 km square); genuine (inter-modal) Points of Interests; common ground for a large set of (institutional and commercial) users; sensing & communication commonly used in applications and services. We want to promote our terminals to SDOs: to provide a relevant playground for developing standards; to attract companies who are pioneering the new ICT. See the talk delivered by PP and Patrick Guillemin (ETSI) on June 4th,

5 The Ro-Ro Area Ro-Ro and Ro-Ro Pax National & EU Cabbotage units 13.5 Mtons of goods The Port of Livorno is ranked first in Italy for Ro-Ro traffic: direct access to motorways a freight village is located nearby (6 Km eastbound) R&D and standardization activities in: vehicular mobility for transportation and freight management

6 The containers terminals TEUs (2014) 7 Mtons of goods (2014) 1.5 km of quays 8 portainer cranes 8 transtainer cranes 22 reach stackers large fleet of handling vehicles Railway Terminal Refeer Area The Port of Livorno features two containers terminals (with dedicated railways): vehicles and humans interact for operational activities R&D and standardization activities in: sensing & communication (V2X, M2M)

7 Ports are the edges of PanEuropean corridors Scandinevian Mediterranean corridor

8 Gateway ports in the supply chain Gateway Ports are nodes in the middle of a supply chain: goods being shipped are not usually originated in the port hinterland; goods discharged are not usually shipped to the port hinterland; the gateway routes goods from other sources / destination. Port of Loading Container yard Port of Discharge

9 A motivating scenario: Freight logistics: a truck enters the Sea Port perimeter. We want to know everything about: the driver; the vehicle; the cargo nature, its origin/destination To : ease the delivering function enforce regulations keep track of Use of Resources & induced Pollution/Risks

10 Use Case: the driver and the vehicle The driver and the vehicle are authenticated and authorized for a set of paths and services; The driver is assisted in the navigation toward the freight unloading/bay; The driver is notified about any impairment / risk he will face to accomplish the authorized task; The other workers/vehicles possibly biased by the vehicle manouvres will be notified.

11 Use Case: the freight The container is tagged to have reached another transit point; The container is checked not to be dangerous / pollutant; The container sensing history (e.g. temperation, acceleration, etc.) is downloaded for QoS checks; The container is loaded into by another carrier (say a ship).

12 Use Case: the environment The real-time pollution introduced by the truck is annotated into its profile; The change in the risk level is calculated; All observations and tasks are annotated in the PMS: (human and concrete) resources are set as booked, in use or released; eventual alarms are generated. The tasks undertaken by the operators on the freight are filled in the PCS: these records update the Key Performance Indicator of a certain segment in the corridor supply chain. TPCS Port Monitoring

13 IoT ecosystems: personal, vehicles, and settlement People, contents and knowledge, clouds, and things are tightly connected; Future Internet services descend from the cooperation among independent ecosystems usually: encapsulated in parallel swimlanes; featuring different specs and standards; focus of different communities (academia and stakeholders)

14 Considered technologies (on the field) Data life-cycle: from sensors measurements to highlevel information (i.e. events, models, analytics) Data sources: new sensors (RFIDs, chemicals, radiation), cameras, (autonomous) connected vehicles, etc.

15 Cloud of Ports From a local infrastructure to a distributed system for managing data at a global scope (through federation); Using Clouds in the whole chain from sensors to services

16 Our target setup From seaports in the core consortium to the EU scope: (Livorno): experimentation on logistics case studies another seaport (and Use Case) to be federated to validate new functions and services

17 Sea Ports in the ITS world ITS Plugtests: Livorno candidature for 2016 campaign; featuring IoT showcase extension; discussion scheduled on Oct. 30 th in Sophia- Antipolis within ETSI TC ITS plenary.
