Summary: The project has been based on the development of a mobile application, proper of the Algeciras Bay Port Authority (APBA), focused on complementing its communication channels and providing, in real time, relevant information of the Port of Algeciras, which will be useful, not only for the passengers, as main user of it, but also […]

Summary: The innovation project was constituted as a proof of concept (PoC) whose challenge was to provide, from the use of video images from the APBA’s Image Capture System (SCI), real-time information about the degree of occupation of the entrance and exit roads to different port areas as well as the arrival flows of trucks […]

Summary: One of the main data used as a reference to schedule and manage port operations are Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) and Estimated Time of Departure (ETD). The shipping agent needs to inform and update about such information. But generally, after the port call request occurs, estimated time data tends to remain static and […]

Summary: The innovation project was set as a proof of concept whose aim was to expand the tracking network of the cargo traffic in the port facilities, deploying the network of cameras already installed in the port area. The challenge was achieved by the start-up AllRead MLT, which solution based on artificial intelligence is capable […]

Summary: Pilot project for testing and validating an innovative solution in the field of advanced data science and artificial intelligence. The challenge, which consists of carrying out the traceability and geolocation of the cargo within the Heavy Traffic Terminal (TTP) of the Port of Algeciras, aims to manage the port resources in a more efficient […]

Summary: APBA is assisting in the development of the Digital Port-Logistics Service Platform (DIGITAL PORT) project within the framework of the Economy, Industry & Competitivity Department’s FEDER-INNTERCONECTA Programme.  Co-financed by the Centre for Industrial Technological Development (CDTI) and EU Structural Funding, its aim is to pave the way for digitalising services in the port-logistics field. […]

Summary: This project is included in the initiative “Pilot 5G Andalucía” led by the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation through the website www.red.es, and currently being developed by Vodafone and Huawei. The project applies to 33 examples of use in industries such as energy, smart cities, tourism, agriculture, healthcare and dependency, security, emergencies […]

Summary: Currently, operational processes that sustain world trade and logistics chains feature a high inefficiency rate, as well as a huge reliance on paper-based document processing: witness examples of such inefficiency in typical cargo delivery times, missing cargo and orders, or lengthy down-times at ports, terminals and logistics warehouses, together with inconsistent and outdated information, […]

Summary: A pilot project which has explored the application of the Port Collaborative Decision Making concept regarding the optimization of operational processes related to port calls, through validated learning based on the development and implementation of a software prototype. To achieve this, an end-to-end approach has been applied, seeking to optimize both the entry – […]

Summary: The objective of the project of modernization and automation of the access controls of Algeciras Port has been to increase the port security and improve inland operations, serving as starting point to the advanced tracking system. Particularly the project has focussed in the improvement of the vehicle and pedestrian access points and control measures […]

Summary Project developed in order to modernize the radio and telco resources and information systems supporting APBA and Port Community procedures as regards to operational coordination, protection and on-site port control, with the following targets: Improve the radio communication intended for the protection and port control considering an optimum use of radio communications through standardised […]

Summary: The objective is to develop a specific operations management ICT tool for the Strait of Gibraltar Crossing Operation (OPE, in Spanish). This ICT platform/tool allows monitoring in real time the utilization rate of the temporary storage areas (parking) and managing port mobility more efficiently, taking care of any incident and guaranteeing maximum quality of […]

Summary: The objective of the  OptiPort project is to develop a simulation and optimization tool for seaside port operations based on probabilistic techniques to support decision-making processes at strategic level (long term). This tool is very useful for port planning since it allows knowing the impact of certain decisions and evaluating the efficiency and quality […]

Summary: The project aims to develop the Algeciras Port Management System (PMS). As a first stage, the development is focused on seaside port operations. It should be said that a PMS is a broad concept, based on the integration of systems, which works as a unique interface platform and which allows coordinating/ monitoring port activities […]

Summary: The objective of the “Algeciras SafePort” project is to improve the management of ocean-meteorological risks in port environments so that the port players can operate and develop its activity in a more secure, efficient and sustainable manner. With this objective, the project has allowed to approximate the physical environment (climate) to the areas where […]

Summary: The objective of the SG3iEV project is to develop a management system that allows the integration of all safety and security port systems existing in the APBA digital ecosystem. The purpose behind this project is to standardize and semi-automate the most common control and monitoring processes to respond quickly to possible incidents that may […]

The objective is to develop a high-resolution model to characterize the currents inside the port docks and, on the other hand, to resolve the anomalies observed in the former hydrodynamic model developed for the Strait of Gibraltar and the Bay of Algeciras (SAMPA) validate it, and nest the high-resolution model with the hydrodynamic SAMPA model. Likewise, environmental modules […]

Summary: The objective of the BrainPort Analytics project is to develop a methodology to monitor operational processes and procedures by using an efficient sensor network at Algeciras and Tarifa Ports and, on the other hand, to develop a data analytical system based on Big-Data and Business Intelligence (BI) to process large volumes of data. This […]
