Digital Transformation in Port Management

Abstract

Like many other industries, the maritime industry has started to work on digital transformation due to its many benefits. Port management, which is one of the building blocks of the maritime industry, has also accelerated digital transformation efforts under the leadership of developed ports in the world. Today, conventional port managements are faced with many problems. The complex and dynamic nature of the port environment does not allow these problems to be solved by conventional methods. This chapter introduces how the smart port environment that can be achieved through digitalization efforts of ports can find solutions to existing and potential problems.
