Data and connectivity have become an extremely important asset, not only to cope with traffic congestion, environmental challenges and handle upcoming and future logistics capacity but also to develop economic and innovative business opportunities for regions, industries, SMEs and high-tech start-ups. 

In this frame 5G-LOGINNOV (project funded by the European Commission Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme, under the Grant Agreement No. 957400), develops a range of port-driven technological and societal innovations supported by 5G technologies, IoT, data analytics, next generation traffic management and CCAM (Cooperative and Connected Automated Mobility).

These innovative solutions, tailored to realise objectives including automation for ports, generation of data on floating trucks and emission, automated truck platooning, video surveillance, precise positioning, predictive manteinance and real time tracking, are implemented and tested in real operating conditions in three Living Lab environments, associated with the ports (or neighbouring city areas) of Athens, Hamburg and Koper.
