Furthermore, it will also include extensive rail enhancements, which offer greater options and operational efficiencies by speeding up the transfer of intermodal containers between vessels and the trains that carry them out of the port.
As well as that, Navis also says the upgraded N4 will enable terminals to realize the real value of automation, with its BI Portal Analytics and Ops Monitoring dashboards being redesigned to better operational insights.
