关于客户
本案例研究中的客户是一家集装箱运输公司,该公司计划从哈利法克斯到不来梅港进行跨大西洋航行。该公司是全球天气情报和决策支持服务提供商 StormGeo 的客户。该公司的船舶最初设定的航行路线可能会暴露在恶劣的天气条件下,可能会导致燃油消耗增加、船舶及其资产损坏以及货物和船员的安全隐患。该公司愿意接受 StormGeo 的航线优化建议,以确保安全且经济高效的航行。
挑战
2017年秋天,StormGeo的客户一家集装箱运输公司正计划从哈利法克斯到北欧不来梅港的跨大西洋航行。出于引航方面的考虑,该船船长原计划取道英吉利海峡,打算沿着北纬40度、西经40度的航线前往英吉利海峡。然而,这条路线提出了重大挑战。它会使船只暴露在与低纬度风暴系统相关的明显更重的水头条件下。这将迫使机长提高速度,从而提高燃油消耗,以维持预定的到达时间。此外,恶劣的条件可能会导致船舶及其资产受损,并对货物和船员造成安全隐患。
解决方案
气象服务专家 StormGeo 提出了本次航行的替代路线。在研究了船长的预定路线后,他们计算出从纽芬兰到英吉利海峡的大圆路线可以节省大量成本。该航线尽管包括额外航行22小时穿越北美ECA区域,但利用高压优势,避开了原定航线的恶劣条件。推荐的路线被记录下来并发送给客户批准,然后转发给船长执行。这种优化的航线不仅确保了船舶、资产和船员的安全,而且还大大节省了燃料消耗和相关的二氧化碳排放。

Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

Digitize Railway with Deutsche Bahn
To reduce maintenance costs and delay-causing failures for Deutsche Bahn. They need manual measurements by a position measurement system based on custom-made MEMS sensor clusters, which allow autonomous and continuous monitoring with wireless data transmission and long battery. They were looking for data pre-processing solution in the sensor and machine learning algorithms in the cloud so as to detect critical wear.

Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.

3M Gains Real-Time Insight with Cloud Solution
The company has a long track record of innovative technology solutions. For example, 3M helps its customers optimize parking operations by automating fee collection and other processes. To improve support for this rapidly expanding segment, 3M needed to automate its own data collection and reporting. The company had recently purchased the assets of parking, tolling, and automatic license plate reader businesses, and required better insight into these acquisitions. Chad Reed, Global Business Manager for 3M Parking Systems, says, “With thousands of installations across the world, we couldn’t keep track of our software and hardware deployments, which made it difficult to understand our market penetration.” 3M wanted a tracking application that sales staff could use to get real-time information about the type and location of 3M products in parking lots and garages. So that it could be used on-site with potential customers, the solution would have to provide access to data anytime, anywhere, and from an array of mobile devices. Jason Fox, Mobile Application Architect at 3M, upped the ante by volunteering to deliver the new app in one weekend. For Fox and his team, these requirements meant turning to the cloud instead of an on-premises datacenter. “My first thought was to go directly to the cloud because we needed to provide access not only to our salespeople, but to resellers who didn’t have access to our internal network,” says Fox. “The cloud just seemed like a logical choice.”
