Framework for Dealing with Uncertainty in the Port Planning Process

Globalization has increased international trade where the contribution of maritime transportation is significant. The projection of future port traffic in terms of vessel call and vessel size provides valuable and fundamental input to capacity planning and management, adjusting the direction of port...

Description
Summary:Globalization has increased international trade where the contribution of maritime transportation is significant. The projection of future port traffic in terms of vessel call and vessel size provides valuable and fundamental input to capacity planning and management, adjusting the direction of port development. In this research, analysis of port traffic is carried out for the Ports of Isafjordur network. The analysis is conducted based on the prediction of port throughput (ie, containerized and noncontainerized cargo, cruise ship call/passenger) in conjunction with port infrastructure
