INTEGRATION and COOPERATION are the two key concepts emerging from the word cloud that participants in the day-long advanced training organized in the of the DIGITPORTS project on deo Digital Twin applications in port ecosystems. An outcome that reflects the themes and case studies exhibited by a panel of top industry speakers who all insisted on these two key aspects. INTEGRATION because, as pointed out Scardino Antonella, Secretary General of the North Adriatic Sea Port Authority - Ports of Venice and Chioggia, who emphasized data standardization and mapping of port assets as basic elements for geo-referenced digitization of procedures and processes. COOPERATION because, as explained by Jeremy Mirmelstein, Sr Solution Architect at Esri Inc, “People are the big part of success of a Digital twin application to navigate the cultural change necessary to achieve a full Digital transformation.” These are the pillars of the path forward in the digitization process of ports and maritime logistics in the Adriatic basin.

📢📢📢 𝗗𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝘄𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗔𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 🔛 Second High level training day in Venice, working within the framework of DIGITPORTS Project Interreg Italy-Croatia Yesterday, the afternoon advanced training session on the application of Digital Twins (DT) in port ecosystems continued with a panel of speakers providing important experiences and contributions based on practical cases. Matteo De Minicis explained how the integration of GIS with other digital tools can save time and effort, as well as optimize environmental sustainability. He pointed out how DT can improve construction site management, highlighting the potential use of drone products, GIS and BIM system, and so on. He also presented a detailed case study on the use of CAD2GIS technology. Monica Oliveira from Esri Portugal subtle that “geographic intelligence” is the basis of 80-90% of decision-making processes for port and maritime logistics management and gave a quick revision on the DT concept. She stated that “DT is a system that you need to have a vision to build” and emphasized GIS as the “foundation of DT”. Nuno Alves from Esri Portugal then discussed the use of the Nexus location intelligence platform at the Port of Sines, stressing its value as the common ground for a DT and providing insightful examples on its practical applications. Maria Grazia Socievole and Daniele Milazzo from CETENA S.p.A. - Centro per gli Studi di Tecnica Navale discussed the significant evolution of ship simulation over time, and highlighted the dynamic and interactive nature of simulation technologies today. DT enable the simulation, monitoring, and optimization of port operations in real-time, with human-in-the-loop integration to enhance efficiency, safety and sustainability. Ian K. emphasized the importance of bringing stakeholders together to share meaningful and open data, to communicate key topics to the public, and to build trust and advocacy with leadership ("Maps are stories to share"). He then explored the best practices in stakeholder engagement from the Port of London, the Port of Rotterdam, and the Immerse project. Leonida Bucci discussed the “DT way of communicating”, refering to DT as the vital component for internal communication. He claimed that the use of DT technologies can facilitate fast, accurate, and risk-managed collaborations among the Port’s stakeholders. Dražen Vrhovski provided some concluding remarks to the training session, emphasizing once again the value of DT as an integrative element. He then identified the typical challenges to be addressed and pointed out the way forward, emphasizing that the #DIGITPORTS project represents the beginning and a fundamental part of a journey that must be continued over time with determination, focus, coordination and resources for an increasingly efficient, transparent and green future of the entire Ports ecosystem.

In this way, technology and digitalization "represents a crucial field we mean to work together, fostering better fields for our commin Activity". Scardino Antonella, as the Secretary General of the North Adriatic Sea Port Authority stressed the importance of standardization of data and the mapping of Ports assets as the basis for geo-standardization of procedures and processes. Brian Keenum explained the definition of Digital Twins technology and its potential applications in the day-to-day operations of the ports. He also gave specific examples on how the technology has been used in other ports and international best practices. Jeremy Mirmelstein "People are the big part of success of a Digital twin application to navigate the cultural change necessary to achieve a full Digital trasformation" Goal in ports is to optimize what they (already) and make ports open and accessible to (ordinary) people. ✅DT make ports open and accessible to (ordinary) people ✅DT monitor and improve port safety ✅DT must operate 24/7 and rely on a shared and agreed platform Cláudio Pinto introduced the Ports of Sines (APS - Administração dos Portos de Sines e do Algarve, S.A.) and its digital strategy, focusing on the Nexus Agenda. Nexus is an important tool for the firm’s stakeholders to share datasets. He then discussed Digital Twins roadmap, its maturity level, and its main pillars. Finally, he concluded by providing a concrete example of how Ports of Sines is currently adopting Digital Twins technology in its everyday operations. Leonida Bucci from Esri Italia stressed the fact that Every single stakeholder of the Port communities is involved in the project. Port Authority needs to have a perspective of DT through the years. Alberto Meroni from Esri spoke about the role of imagery in the Digital Twins journey. He identified the ‘3D barriers’ with respect to reality mapping and suggested potential solutions to overcome these issues. He then provided specific examples on cost-effective imagery technologies and their data collection methods. He mentioned also the role of drone, satellite, and AI in improving imagery technologies. #EUfunding #InterregItalyCroatia #crossbordercooperation #adriaticports #CRESPORT #DIGITPORTS #cybersecurity #digitaltwins #digitalupskilling TBC... 🔎shorturl.at/KAsc5

Digital Twins (DT) is the digitization tool that will change port and shipping logistics. The DIGITPORTS project, under the EU Interreg Italy Croatia 2021-2027 program, was created to implement the use of this technology, toward the creation of an efficient and scalable logistic network. The stakes are high and the benefits are clear: greater efficiency and interoperability among Adriatic Sea ports, better use of resources and increased performance, including in terms of sustainability.  Goals that need both technological and cultural change, cooperation and a lot of theoretical and practical training. These are the topics that will be addressed next January 28, from 10 am to 6 pm, in a full day of High Level Training organized by the Lead Partner of the DIGITPORTS project, the Port System Authority of the Northern Adriatic Sea - Ports of Venice and Chioggia, in collaboration with the Order of Engineers of Venice and with the technical partnership of ESRI Itala. An not-to-miss day of training, packed with contributions from top-level speakers, with analysis of international best practices, theory and practice of DT applications and their impacts also as a tool for stakeholder engagement.

Il progetto DIGITPORTS, nell’ambito del programma EU Interreg Italy Croatia 2021-2027 nasce per implementare l’uso di questo strumento, verso la creazione di un network logistico efficiente e scalabile. La posta in gioco è alta e i vantaggi evidenti: maggiore efficienza e interoperatività fra i porti del Mare Adriatico, miglior uso delle risorse e aumento delle performance, anche in termini di sostenibilità.  Obiettivi che necessitano di un cambiamento sia tecnologico che culturale, di cooperazione e tanta formazione teorica e pratica. Questi sono i temi che saranno affrontati il prossimo 28 gennaio, dalle 10 alle 18, in una intera giornata di High Level Training organizzata dal Lead Partner del progetto DIGITPORTS, l’Autorità di Sistema Portuale del Mar Adriatico Settentrionale - Porti di Venezia e Chioggia, in collaborazione con l’Ordine degli Ingegneri di Venezia e con la partnership tecnica di ESRI Itala. Una imperdibile giornata di formazione, ricchissima di contributi da parte di speaker di altissimo livello, con analisi delle best practice internazionali, teoria e pratica delle applicazioni DT e le loro ricadute anche come strumento di stakeholders engagement.
