PIXEL is a research and innovation project that seeks to improve the environmental impact of small and medium sized European ports through the application of three fundamental concepts:
Creation of an IOT platform focused on the port area where ports can dump data from different sources and formats.
To apply data analysis, simulation and prediction techniques through modelling of specific environmental problems, with the aim of reducing emissions, optimising operations and having a better fit with neighbouring cities (port cities).
To measure the contribution of the port to the environment through an innovative Port Environmental Index (PEI).
Project aimed at: Ports.
Status: In execution.
I2PANEMA: Intelligent IoT-based Port Artefacts Communication, Administration and Maintenance
The I2PANEMA project aims to deploy the full power of IoT solutions in ports to improve port operations, making them more efficient and sustainable, paving the way towards smart port networks (SmartPorts). In this race, barriers such as data security and the lack of integration of existing and heterogeneous IT systems must be overcome. The requirements of the pilots are important stimuli for the development of an IoT port reference architecture. It is envisaged that the architectural results will be fed into standardisation bodies such as Industry 4.0 RAMI.
Project aimed at: Ports.
Status: In execution.

APPS: Advancing Plug & Play Smart Surveillance.
Current maritime surveillance systems use technologies such as radar, AIS identification and the use of visual sensors. However, these present limitations as the non-detection of smalls vessels and the sensors do not have 3D capabilities.
APPS will be an Intelligent surveillance system of the future for the support of intelligent 2D/3D operation to prevent illegal maritime activities in coastal areas and ports through a Plug & Play architecture using heterogeneous sensors that complement radar and a CEP that allows the analysis of suspicious behaviour by using machine learning techniques.
DOCKING-ASSIST: it improves the efficiency and security of a port by using an innovative wireless communication system. It also improves the navigation of vessels with differential positioning system by satellite.
DOCKING-ASSIST aims at the construction of a low cost PPU (Portable Pilot Unit) based on Wimax for docking manoeuvres with precision to the centimetre using a differential positioning system by satellite (PDGNSS). It helps decreasing the manoeuvring time of the boats inside the port and to increase their performance with a minimum investment. The project reduces fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and the environmental impact of maritime transport. It was applied to the Port of Cork (Ireland).
Project oriented to: Ports.

The objective of the VALKNUT project is to improve the performance of port logistics terminals through the design, implementation and commissioning of a software tool that allows, on the basis of a mathematical modelling of the main parameters governing the loading, unloading and storage of containers as well as the specific situation of the terminal, to obtain an optimal allocation of resources per berthed ship that guarantees the committed quality levels and reduces waiting times in dock and yard cranes, key factors in minimizing the number of inefficiencies in each and every one of the stages that make up the complete process.

Development of data-intensive applications in the cloud with iterative quality improvement: DICE
DICE aims to define an open-source framework for quality-oriented development of Big Data applications. It offers a new UML profile and tools that help software designers reason about the reliability, security and efficiency of information-intensive applications. The DICE methodology covers quality assessment, architecture improvement, continuous testing and agile delivery according to the DevOps methodology. It has been applied to the POSIDONIA OPERATIONS © product for real-time ship monitoring.

The overall objective of the INTER-IoT project is to provide an open and interoperable IOT framework (with associated software engineering tools and methodology) for the integration of heterogeneous IOT platforms operating in the same or different application domains. INTER-IoT uses a layered approach. The two application fields and use cases addressed in the project and where IOT will be applied are: a) port transport and logistics and b) eHealth. Through interoperability different strategic operations will be optimised in the two use cases: a) increase efficiency of transport time, reduce CO2 emissions, improve access control and security; b) improve remote surveillance of subjects; increase the number of people that medical units can assist using the same resources. In this way, the INTER-IoT approach is general and can be applied to any field of application and to all areas where there is a need to interconnect diversified IoT systems already deployed or to add new ones. This will allow the bottom-up formation of IOT interoperability ecosystems.Project aimed at: Ports, Cities, IoT.

Development of i4.0 technologies for the digitalization of Spanish ports through highly automated logistics (Smart Digital Ports). The objective pursued by this project is to advance in the provision of strategic technologies that bring us closer to the port of the future as the only way to satisfy the growing demands of efficiency, economy, security and environmental compatibility according to the concept of Industry 4.0 and with the highest levels of automation, as required in the scenarios that integrate different automated land transport vehicles in port operations.

FastFix developed a platform to allow support to the maintenance of software applications. It allows to obtain better information about the context where errors occur, a stack trace for the reproduction of an error, to organize the errors detected with its automatic registration in a ticket system, to provide clues about possible causes or solutions for the errors detected, to learn from the errors that occur and solutions that are provided so that the platform learns as it processes errors. It was applied to the ESPIGON © port management product.
