Agreement Value:

$30,000.00

Agreement Date:

Aug 19, 2024 - Mar 20, 2025

Description:

This project will develop a novel simulation tool for understanding shocks to the maritime supply chain in Canada. The project will evaluate past disruptions and how they impacted vessel traffic and use these insights to generate a novel model for anticipating changes to future events. A maritime network derived from previous positional reports of vessels at global scale will be used to visualize and understand changes in port calls, schedules, and overall volume at a local and aggregate level. A user interface will be developed to operate and generate insights from the model when deployed on live vessel tracking data, as part of the OCIANA platform.
