• Resumen

  • Nowadays, the Economy relies on terminals and ports, hence 80% of trade is carried out by sea. The Smart Port aims to put technology at the service of the port, to enhance the efficiency and safety of data and goods during portal operations. Smart ports answer economic challenges by adapting infrastructures and services to accommodate as many ships as possible. Transport, handling, storage, and support activities can be enhanced with new technological solutions. In this manuscript, we will see a state of art on building Smart ports from container terminals, based on specific technologies applied to some famous smart ports. This paper is a review study on smart ports, referring to recent studies and projects, to look for chances, strengths, and weakness points, for possible future projects.
