Inspiration:

We took inspiration from the Challenge of Holcim Maqer. This project was possibly thanks to the great data they provided and their help.

Challenge:

Revolutionize logistics with an eco-centric approach using live and real data. Reduce empty trips which poses a threat to the environment and wastes time for truck drivers.

Solution:

"Truckathon" - A dynamic system to optimize truck routes, ensuring fewer emissions and efficient deliveries.

Key Features:

  1. Smart Route Finder: Adapts using real-time traffic and weather data. (Google Maps)
  2. Emission Tracker: Keep track of the CO2 delta between different solutions.
  3. Provide efficient itineraries for deliveries.
  4. Reduce waste of time and money with optimized and shorter "empty" trips.

Benefits:

  • Eco Impact: Majorly reduce emissions.
  • Economic: Cut down on fuel and logistic costs.
  • Brand Boost: Elevate company's green image.
  • Optimize the resources usage for third party truck drivers.

Plan:

  1. Data Analysis: Extract key insights from trucking datasets.
  2. Prototype: Build an optimization tool using findings.
  3. Test & Refine: Simulate, tweak, perfect.

What's next:

  • Improve UI
  • Load Analyzer: Maximizes truck capacity for fewer trips. (Knapsack problem)
  • User private sessions
  • Integrate 2 accounts, trucker and logistic center
  • Mobile application
