Consolidating Scattered Logistics Operations on the Ground with AI
Published
A method of using artificial intelligence (AI) in logistics sites to bring together tasks that had been divided among multiple locations is being introduced. According to a report by the Korea Maritime Newspaper, this change is appearing mainly at liquid cargo terminals.
Liquid cargo terminals are facilities that handle cargo in liquid form, such as petroleum products, chemicals, and eco-friendly fuels. Terminals play a role in safely unloading cargo from transport ships, and then storing and distributing it. Because the handling process of liquid cargo is complex and safety management is especially important, many tasks on site are often carried out separately.
When tasks are divided, information may be shared late or the flow of work may be interrupted. It is known that by using AI, tasks at several stages, such as receiving, storing, and dispatching cargo, can be managed together within a single system. This approach is drawing attention as a way to reduce confusion on site and improve the efficiency of task processing.
The use of digital technology in the logistics industry is steadily expanding. It is expected that changing on-site work methods will improve both safety and efficiency. However, the concrete results of actual implementation cases will need to be further confirmed in the future.
