Learn how IoT, or Internet of Things, can help you optimize your airport logistics, by tracking assets, improving safety, enhancing passenger experience, and more.

Article très pertinent : l’aéroport dans ses fonctions fixes comme dans ses fonctions mobiles constitue un terrain de jeu idéal pour l’Internet des Objets. Évidemment cela suscite une inquiétude : la Cybersecurité ! De même que pour les smarts cities : l’aéroportuaire connecté est une cible de choix pour les cyber-terroristes. Voir par exemple les travaux de Rémy Février sur ce sujet.

IOT has great potential in the aviation value chain, and there are valuable use cases that can significantly improve efficiency, safety, passenger experience, and resource management in airport logistics. For example IOT can help in asset tracking and monitoring from aircraft tracking, to ground service equipment (GSE) monitoring, to baggage tracking, etc. IOT can help improve airport safety and security, through digital fencing, environmental monitoring and by early detection of potential hazards, etc. IOT even can help enhance passenger experience at the airport, like by deployment of smart queue management, location based information and directional system and fast & contact less immigration and passenger processing at the airport, etc.

How can you use IoT for efficient airport logistics?

Airport logistics are crucial for ensuring smooth and safe operations, as well as enhancing passenger experience and satisfaction. However, managing the complex and dynamic flows of people, luggage, vehicles, and aircraft can be challenging, especially in times of high demand, disruption, or uncertainty. How can you use IoT for efficient airport logistics? IoT, or Internet of Things, refers to the network of connected devices, sensors, and software that can collect, transmit, and analyze data in real time. IoT can help you optimize airport logistics in several ways, such as:

1 Track and monitor assets

IoT can enable you to track and monitor the location, condition, and status of various assets, such as luggage, ground equipment, vehicles, and aircraft. By using RFID tags, GPS trackers, and wireless sensors, you can gain visibility and control over your assets, and reduce the risks of loss, theft, damage, or delay. You can also use IoT data to automate and streamline processes, such as baggage handling, cargo loading, and equipment maintenance.

L'Iot ou IIOT dans ce cas peut être utilisé pour mettre en place de la maintenance prédictive dans les zones difficilement accessibles : Par exemple en équipant les moteurs activant les tapis bagages sous les aéroports. Ainsi, lorsqu'un moteur montre des signes de faiblesse, on peut intervenir avant la panne de manière plus efficace et cela optimise donc l'expérience voyageurs en étant sur d'avoir son bagage à l'arrivée car les pannes potentielles des tapis sont traitées avant leurs apparitions.

Des IoT pour le suivi du matériel tel que les tapis roulant. Ces IoT permettent de contrôler les vibrations. Grâce à un peu d'IA des périodes de maintenance peuvent être définis avant la casse et ainsi optimiser le fonctionnement du matériel.

2 Improve safety and security

IoT can also help you improve the safety and security of your airport operations, by providing real-time alerts and insights on potential hazards, threats, or incidents. For example, you can use IoT devices to detect and prevent fire, smoke, gas, or water leaks, and to activate emergency response systems. You can also use IoT devices to monitor and secure the perimeter, access points, and restricted areas of your airport, and to identify and track suspicious or unauthorized activities.

3 Enhance passenger experience

IoT can also help you enhance the passenger experience, by offering personalized and convenient services, such as smart check-in, boarding, and baggage claim. You can use IoT devices to communicate with passengers via their smartphones or wearable devices, and provide them with relevant information, such as flight status, gate number, baggage location, or waiting time. You can also use IoT devices to offer passengers entertainment, comfort, and loyalty rewards, such as Wi-Fi access, ambient lighting, or coupons.

4 Optimize resources and operations

IoT can also help you optimize your resources and operations, by enabling you to collect and analyze data on various aspects of your airport performance, such as traffic flow, capacity utilization, energy consumption, or environmental impact. You can use IoT data to identify and address bottlenecks, inefficiencies, or anomalies, and to implement solutions, such as dynamic scheduling, routing, or pricing. You can also use IoT data to forecast demand, plan ahead, and adapt to changing conditions.

Add your perspective

5 Innovate and differentiate

IoT can also help you innovate and differentiate your airport from your competitors, by creating new value propositions, business models, or partnerships. You can use IoT to leverage your data and insights, and to offer new services or products, such as smart parking, digital signage, or drone delivery. You can also use IoT to collaborate with other stakeholders, such as airlines, retailers, or regulators, and to create integrated and seamless solutions for your customers.
