AVERA

AVERA (Automated Vessel Emission and Route Analysis)

Inspiration

For vessel and port operations, it is essential to have up-to-date data available to ease decision-making from timetable to routes. From an environmental policy standpoint, operators need to minimize or mitigate emissions from their operations. Inspiration for our project is providing combined insights on both operations and emission data in a centralized dashboard.

What it does

Provide a platform for operators to monitor and understand emissions in relation to multiple variables from routes to vessel types.

How we built it

We have mapped the voyage emission information and vessel particulars to analyze the emission per type of vessel. Data were taken from blob files stored in azure and azure postgresql database. Preprocessed data were inserted into a new database which were then used for visualization and modelling.

Challenges we ran into

We had a hard time in accessing the data for most of the time, the connection keeps on failing. The setup of the development environment also took time due to package version issues.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Completing a prototype data processing for vessel and emission data

What we learned

We learned how to utilize Azure Cloud

What's next for AVERA

Implementation and integration of machine learning models for route and timing optimization recommendations. Further, automate the process of data extraction and visualization vessel info and emission data.
