Smart Ports

Leaders in port technology

For more than ten years we have been deploying high-value systems for our clients, both in port areas managed by public authorities and in container, Ro-Ro, bulk and intermodal terminals operated under concession. We offer state-of-the-art sensors and onboard controllers, the design and deployment of wireless networks for large industrial areas, control-centre software and data analytics — both real-time and historical — plus a complete back office based on intuitive reports and dashboards that support data-driven decision-making.

Featured projects

• Migration of Gottwald crane PLC firmware to solid-state devices.
• Access control for vehicles, goods and people at the ports of Valencia, Sagunto and Gandía.
• Paperless Levante at the Port of Sagunto.
• PoC: Automatic vehicle classification via LIDAR at the North Sagunto access point.
• PoC: Automatic empty-container detection at the South Valencia access point.
• PDS at the public container terminal of Valencia, integrated with the terminal TOS: CATOS and NAVIS.
• PoC: Container-code and vehicle number-plate reading from a mobile device for gates integrated into the GOS.
• Onboard telemetry on TT, RS, ECH, RTG and STS at container terminals.
• Onboard presence control on terminal machinery.
• PDS at private container terminals.
• TT parking position and occupancy control system.
• Assistance system for the tally clerk with ultra-low-latency video fusion and a touchscreen tablet viewer.
• Onboard dynamic wireless-coverage control system.
• Ship-to-jib anti-collision system through sensor fusion.
• Inertial system for detecting TT under RTG at MSC.
• PoC: LIDAR system for the surveillance of maritime docks.

Results achieved

Because our systems operate 24/7 in critical infrastructure, under very harsh conditions and with very high flows of people, goods and vehicles, we have developed specific tools to measure their quality and availability through the dynamic calculation of KPIs, providing preventive, predictive and corrective alerts for any possible deviation from the set objectives — reaching an availability of 99.72% on PDS systems, 99.81% on Access Control and 99.63% on onboard telemetry.

For the same reason, we have developed our own hardware products such as the onboard industrial controller “ZIC 5110”, the centimetre-level RTK receiver “INERZIAL”, as well as encoder-reading devices, terminal boards and more, which let us implement performance improvements and fix errors very quickly without depending on third parties, while also fighting planned obsolescence.

The same approach extends to software, developed entirely by our team of engineers, which allows us to offer our clients an excellent service with minimal response times.

This added value, greatly appreciated by our clients, is what sets us apart from the competition.
