Digital twin for Eurogate container terminal
Port and terminal operator, Eurogate, has confirmed a new groundbreaking partnership with Prodevelop that will see a Digital TwinSim developed for the Eurogate Container Terminal in Hamburg, Germany.
Prodevelop is using its expertise in Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data projects to implement what it regards as “revolutionary” solutions in generating a digital twin of processes and equipment, transforming operations and maintenance at this facility.
Patrick Jandt, Head of IT, Eurogate, explains how the process is developing: “As we approach the key stage of the TwinSim project, leveraging big data to visualise current operations in real-time and predict future scenarios, our collaboration with Prodevelop stands as a cornerstone in our digital transformation journey.”
Eurogate has also confirmed that there is a focus on Industry 4.0 technologies, which will support seamless integration of terminal equipment into a unified view, thereby helping better optimise operations for enhanced efficiency and productivity.
The operator adds that pivotal to the project is Prodevelop’s establishment of a Data Lake and innovative methods that better integrate IoT data from the physical layer with Terminal Operating System (TOS) systems.
