Posford Haskoning has a wealth of experience and knowledge in maritime development issues. To help communicate these skills to clients and potential customers the POSPORT range of applications was developed. This in-house suite of specialised programs includes port simulation and marine risk assessment modules. It also includes navigational visualisation software and terrain modelling viewers.
• Visualisation of complex operational marine transport environments
• Analysis for optimal design of container terminals
• Design modelling of Roll-on Roll-off terminal facilities
• Risk assessment of marine vessel navigation scenarios
• Integrated teams combining software development skills with maritime development expertise
Container Terminal Simulation (CTS)
POSPORT CTS provides terminal operators with the chance to analyse complex "what if" scenarios prior to major capital investment. CTS allows the user to design container terminal layouts and then assign all types of equipment and transport schedules. The simulation can be viewed in 2D and 3D and output from the model provides numerical and statistical analysis from which throughput and operational efficiency can be evaluated. When individual cranes cost more than £1million, CTS offers port operators real financial benefits before having to commit to capital investment.
