MISSION: Maritime Just-in-Time Optimization

MISSION targets GHG emissions reductions in the maritime transportation chain, specifically optimizing the port call process. Within the project, integrated port call system solutions are build to increase transparency and communication about resource readiness and estimated arrival times to finally orchestrate the overall port call process. The project contains demonstration cases that will highlight the gains from the system solutions.
