Maritime Logistics Informatics JNB701
Introduction
The unit introduces students to the digital revolution in maritime logistics chains and the importance of informatics to ensure that the relevant stakeholders obtain benefits of the vast digital data sources for decision-making. The unit will develop students’ knowledge and skills in applying informatics to enhance data sharing and decision support for stakeholders to increase the efficiency, safety, environmental sustainability, and resilience of maritime logistics chains.
The unit will covers topics related to the ecosystem of maritime logistics chains; the concept of informatics; digitalisation in maritime logistics chains; application of informatics in shipping, ports/terminals, landside transport, and warehousing and distribution; maritime and logistics informatics and decision-making; data management.
This unit links to maritime and logistics units such as JNB534 Commercial Ship Management, JNB503 Maritime Safety, JNB616 Port Management and Strategy, and JNB522 Business Logistics as shipping, ports and logistics are important elements of maritime logistics chains within which digitalisation currently occurs. Knowledge from these units can be brought into play as you go through this unit study.
