Smart Ports 101 (IoT & Automation)

The Smart Ports 101 (IoT & Automation) session introduces the core technologies that enable ports to operate more efficiently, with greater visibility and control.

This webinar focuses on how sensors, connectivity, platforms, and automation systems work together to modernize port operations—from the quay to the control room.

In this session, you’ll understand:

• What defines a smart port beyond the buzzwords

• How IoT sensors and connected devices are used in port environments

• The role of automation in cranes, yards, gates, and terminal operations

• How data flows from physical assets into monitoring, analytics, and decision systems

It’s a foundational, systems-level discussion designed to help engineers, ICT professionals, and planners understand how smart ports are built and why connectivity is central to automation.

If you work in ports, logistics, infrastructure, or ICT, this session provides the baseline knowledge needed before tackling more advanced implementations.
