Storm at the port: plan the cranes

What it does

Every six hours: the wind forecast at your ports for the next two days, the windiest first, with a crane and berth note by xMap AI for the terminal manager.

In one sentence: Every 6 hours at :00, take your table, get the 2-day weather forecast, sort them by wind_max_kmh and keep the top 5, write a report with xMap AI, then email the list to you.

Why it is useful

Cranes stop in high wind. Planning berths around it keeps ships moving.

Who it is for

Logistics, fleet & delivery. Dispatch, fleet and delivery teams who keep goods moving around closures, weather and ports. Every use case for logistics & delivery

Best use cases

• A terminal operator
• A port authority

What each run gives you

• An email

The time it saves

Every 6 hours at :00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 30 minutes each time; it runs about 120 times a month, so it saves about 40 hours a month (an estimate). It is easy: 6 blocks.
