Greg Aziz Looks at Advances in Shipping

As the shipping industry expands, the need to track container facilities grows. As an engineer, business leader Greg Aziz is acutely aware of how detailed and collaborative tracking can benefit shippers and consumers. One tool that is helping modernize this process is geofencing.

As of late August, Greg Aziz recalls, there is one main company facilitating geofencing of the North American operations. The Intermodal Association of North America (IANA) has been pivotal in getting this feature off the ground. A team at IANA will be in charge of gathering the geofencing coordinations of the North American hubs. 

The global efforts will be handled by another company, and the different entities will merge their data for a seamless and standardized workflow. Led by Greg Aziz, this project is an international effort that will affect more than 100 countries.

The ultimate and final goal is to have an open platform that connects all the interested parties. He says that the resources will be efficient and closely monitored, and the system has many layers of security to ensure privacy and security (Newswire).

Some of the operations that will dive into this service are the railroad and truckers. business leader Greg Aziz envisions that port workers and logistic managers will be highly involved in this project. Some other avenues that may extend from it are streamlined routes, business connections, and new learning opportunities.
