Just in Time Bunkering Operations: AI model for bunkering operations optimization.
Summary: At present, bunkering operations in ports are not exempt from certain congestion problems, which can lead, in some cases, to delays in the start of these services to the vessel. Similarly, factors such as the lack of global visibility, coordination and real-time operational awareness of these operations could be improved. This would result in […]
Smart Mobility Analytics (SMA): intelligent management system for port mobility
The Port Authority of the Bay of Algeciras (APBA) participates in the Smart Mobility Analytics (SMA) project, aimed at developing a system based on cameras and artificial intelligence, through the application of advanced detection algorithms based on neural networks, capable of analyzing passenger and vehicle flows. The resulting product is an integrated mobility management system […]
Maritime Lagoon: The New Innovation District and Port-CityInteraction of Algeciras
The culture germinated or inspired in port cities, in addition to expressing itself through its different modalities such as music, plastic arts, technology, as well as other areas of human creativity, needs to express itself in architecture and urbanism. In Europe, almost 40% of the population lives in medium-sized cities, such as Algeciras. The social, […]
VIPE – Vulnerability of Port Infrastructure from Space
Summary: The Port Authority of the Bay of Algeciras (APBA) participates in the VIPE project, focused on developing a tool for managing the risk and vulnerability of port infrastructure through the application of Synthetic Aperture Radar Differential Interferometry technology (DInSAR for its acronym in English) and artificial intelligence algorithms. The project, which has a grant […]
