FY 2024-25 · 2024-08-19

Summary
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.

Description (French)
Ce projet développera un nouvel outil de simulation pour comprendre les chocs subis par la chaîne d’approvisionnement maritime au Canada. Le projet évaluera les perturbations passées et la façon dont elles ont eu un impact sur le trafic maritime et utilisera ces connaissances pour générer un nouveau modèle permettant d’anticiper les changements des évènements futurs. Un réseau maritime dérivé des rapports de position antérieurs des navires à l’échelle mondiale sera utilisé pour visualiser et comprendre les changements dans les escales, les horaires et le volume global à un niveau local et agrégé. Une interface utilisateur sera développée pour opérer et générer des aperçus à partir du modèle lorsqu’il est déployé sur des données de suivi de navires en direct, dans le cadre de la plateforme OCIANA.
Expected Results
The purpose of IRAP’s Youth Employment Program is to assist in increasing the supply of highly qualified people, promoting the benefits of advanced studies, demonstrating federal leadership by investing in the skills required to meet the needs of the knowledge economy and facilitating the transition of highly skilled young people to a rapidly changing labour market.
