Abstract: Monitoring maritime cargo worldwide transport routes is currently a strategic aspect of any port authority activity. These types of vessels carry by-products from the transformation of raw materials, which used to be transported by the world fleet of bulk carriers. These cargoes are handled in different ways when loaded/unloaded, depending on the logistic modes: containerised or uncontainerised.
