Tiivistelmä
This study explained how advanced technologies support the maritime sector, especially artificial intelligence (AI) and the internet of things (IoT) due to the growing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The analysis was conducted as a literature review, supported by four case studies. These case studies focused on benefits, challenges, and the ways in which these technologies are being applied in the maritime industry.
Through the analysis, several findings were obtained. For example, these technologies help optimize routes, enhance decision-making, reduce harmful gas emissions, and operational costs. However, the study identified challenges such as the high costs involved in adopting the technologies, lack of standardization, legacy system integration, and the shortage of skilled personnel capable of managing them.
The study concludes that digital technologies contribute to efficiency and decarbonization, but they require adoption, industry collaboration, and regulatory frameworks.
