Freight Equipment --> Intermodal Terminal:
container location

Definitions

container location (Information Flow): The location of a container, to sufficient accuracy to allow efficient container management.

Freight Equipment (Source Physical Object): 'Freight Equipment' represents a freight container, intermodal chassis, or trailer and provides sensory, processing, storage, and communications functions necessary to support safe, secure and efficient freight operations. It provides equipment safety data and status and can alert the appropriate systems of an incident, breach, or tamper event. It also provides accurate position information to support in-transit visibility of freight equipment.

Intermodal Terminal (Destination Physical Object): The 'Intermodal Terminal' represents the terminal areas corresponding to modal change points. This includes interfaces between roadway freight transportation and air, rail, and/or water shipping modes. The basic unit of cargo handled by the Intermodal Terminal physical object is the container; less-than-container load handling is typically handled at a different facility (i.e., Freight Consolidation Station). The Intermodal Terminal can include electronic gate control for entrance and exit from the facility, automated guidance of vehicles within the facility, alerting appropriate parties of container arrivals and departures, and inventory and location of temporarily stored containers.

Communication Solutions

Solutions are sorted in ascending Gap Severity order. The Gap Severity is the parenthetical number at the end of the solution.

Selected Solution

(None-Data) - Local Unicast Wireless (EU)

Solution Description

This solution is used within Australia and the E.U.. It combines standards associated with (None-Data) with those for V-X: Local Unicast Wireless (EU). The (None-Data) standards include an unspecified set of standards at the upper layers. The V-X: Local Unicast Wireless (EU) standards include lower-layer standards that support local-area unicast wireless solutions applicable to the European Union, such as G5, LTE, Wi-Fi, etc.

Rating Moderate Moderate Moderate
Basis Possibly competetive information. Definitely has value, and if availble to actors with competing interests to the actors legitimately involved with the container, information as to where the container is and is projected to be at different times could be abused to the actor's advantage.For high value containers, this may be HIGH. Possibly competetive, and also with legal and criminal implications. Container ID needs to be correct to deter fraudlence, smuggling and related activities.For high value containers, this may be HIGH. There should be other means to identify the container, but without this flow accurate tracking becomes more difficult. For high value containers, this may be HIGH.
