MINATO DIGITAL TWIN

Minato's Digital Twin is a valuable and resourceful intelligent port systems model beneficial in port planning; offering a multitude of Features & Benefits ü Enhanced Asset Management Minato Digital Twin significantly improves port asset management by visualizing the present and future physical assets. Using IoT sensors, Minato's Digital Twin accurately measures, maps, and includes data sources of assets (cranes, yard equipment, and terminal facilities) to port operatives. The digital model also sends real-time reports helping the maintenance team stay abreast of any upcoming or future maintenance needs and take corrective action before any fault occurs.

Real-Time Monitoring
Minato's Digital Twin is crucial in improving efficiencies through a visualized digital platform showcasing real-time port operations and a 2D/3D visual that gives an actual view of the port operations to the operator sitting in the control room. The real-time information helps operators manage end-to-end port operations (cargo movement, fleet management services) and govern the personnel on the field.   Enhancing Port Terminals and Operations
Minato's Digital Twin enhances port operations by offering real-time data through monitoring; it also gives the port operators an insight into critical factors by modelling the entire port into a digital twin. By replicating the scenario into a digital twin, ports can prepare for incoming and outgoing vessels, reduce the overall turnaround time of trucks and ships, and avert peak congestion.
