GORADAR team developed and implemented a solution to track the project transportation of wind power plants from Europe and China to Kazakhstan, carried out by the ISS Global Solutions from UAE. The service made it possible to monitor the location of cargo within the framework of a large project transportation.
The equipment was delivered from May to November 2019 from Germany, Turkey and China to the village of Badamsha (Kazakhstan). 13 sets of wind turbines (WPPs) with a total volume of 52,418 freight tons were delivered from the ports of Brake (Germany), Bandirma and Izmir (Turkey) to the port on the Caspian Sea, and from there by trucks to the construction site in Badamsha (Kazakhstan). During the project, GORADAR simultaneously tracked seven vessels, more than 30 oversized vehicles and about 200 cargo units.
“During transportation, we entered data on cargo units and vehicles into GORADAR, then they were automatically tracked from satellites, and the client received all the information about the status and location of cargo, as well as vehicles involved in transportation, at the click of a button,” says Andrey Averichkin, engineer at ISS Global Solutions. The project data contained a visualization of the location on the map, exact geographic coordinates, and, at the client’s request, video broadcasting at some points along the route (for example, by means of web cameras integrated into the project in the city of Astrakhan, where ships with cargo passed).
GORADAR service allowed us to reduce labor costs for monitoring cargo and the risks of losing information, since all geo-data was provided directly from satellites and from trusted integrators. In addition, as mentioned above, GORADAR implemented a broadcast from web cameras located along the cargo route.
In the near future, it is planned to introduce project tracking using cameras installed on vehicles, as well as directly at the delivery point.
