The "LOGTECH Expo 2024", organised by the Transport and Logistics Bureau of HKSAR with the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC) as the Executive Partner, was officially held on 12 -13 June at the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC). The two-day expo brought together over 300 local business leaders, SME representatives, industry partners and logistics technology providers to share the latest technology trends in the industry, and to explore how to make the best use of government subsidies for upgrading and restructuring towards smart and green logistics, and enhancing efficiency and productivity. As a leading innovator in weather-based predictive analytics, ClusterTech demonstrated how its state-of-the-art technology is poised to revolutionise the way mobility and logistics operations are planned and executed.
Mr. Ng Ka Ki, ClusterTech’s meteorological expert, presented the weather prediction solution to the guests
Mr. Ng Ka Ki, ClusterTech's meteorological expert, showcased the high-resolution numerical weather prediction solution and highlighted how it can deliver benefits for the shipping and logistics industries in the pitching session. "In an industry where time and efficiency are critical, the ability to accurately predict and adapt to changing weather conditions can make all the difference," said Mr. Ng. "Our solution gives our clients in shipping and logistics a competitive edge by empowering them to forecast and optimise weather conditions for maritime, road and air routes."
ClusterTech’s High Resolution Numerical Weather Prediction Solution for Shipping and Logistics utilises the unique and latest weather prediction model CPAS. CPAS is a cloud-based service platform that implements customised mesh generation and hierarchical time-stepping on Model for Prediction Across Scales - Atmosphere (MPAS-A) to better serve the computational needs of numerical atmospheric model users. The model can provide higher resolution and more accurate data for routes with specific risks, helping shipping companies save costs and avoid casualty loss.
Visitors listened attentively to the expert's presentation
The ClusterTech team provided an in-depth demonstration to the visitors and shared their valuable experience in the actual project. Visitors showed great interest in the weather simulation model CPAS.
The demonstration of ClusterTech's CPAS at LOGTECH Expo 2024 left attendees eager to learn how this innovative technology can enhance their logistics and mobility operations. As the transport and logistics industry continues to grapple with the challenges of an increasingly volatile climate, ClusterTech's cutting-edge solution is expected to be a potential game changer in the quest for greater efficiency, reliability and resilience.
