The document discusses using big data and sensors to optimize operations at the Port of Hamburg as container traffic increases dramatically. Sensors would be added to containers, vehicles and infrastructure to monitor location, environmental conditions, traffic and more in real-time. This sensor data would integrate with data from various APIs and systems to provide updates on wait times, parking availability, bridge openings and other factors. The goal is to help the port efficiently manage the large projected growth in volume while maintaining smooth logistics and transportation workflows.
