TRAINPORTS (TRAINing in marine PORTS by using Simulation) ) |
|
The project propose a virtual 3D Simulator for training for marine workers. The simulator can be used for evaluating and improving trainees’ skills in using working equipment as well as to do an operation in a safe virtual environment. The marine port considered in this research project is the Gioia Tauro container terminal, located in South Italy, one of the bigger container terminals in Italy and the biggest transshipment container terminal in the Mediterranean area. The development of the virtual marine port includes three components: the virtual environment, the geometric model and the dynamic process module. The virtual environment hosts the marine port environment developed by using a 3D real time modeling tool. The marine port environment includes berth and yard, berth cranes, container handling equipment and facilities. The main port operations are implemented within the dynamic process module by using the HLA standard (the simulation engine and allows all the interactions in the 3D environment). |
