Get a glimpse through this free preview on how IoT technologies are being applied across the maritime industry to create smarter, data-driven operations.
Explore how the Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing the maritime industry. This course covers key concepts, technologies, and real-world use cases—empowering professionals to apply IoT for smarter, more connected maritime operations.
IoT is a network of connected devices that collect and share data to enable smarter decision-making.
IIoT applies this concept to industrial settings—like maritime—using sensors and real-time data to improve safety, efficiency, and operations.
IoT is widely used across industries to enable real-time monitoring, automation, and data-driven decisions. From smart homes and healthcare to logistics and transportation, IoT improves efficiency, reduces downtime, and enhances user experiences through connected devices and systems.
In maritime, IoT is used for real-time vessel tracking, fuel monitoring, predictive maintenance, cargo condition monitoring, and port automation. These applications improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance safety across the shipping and offshore industries.
Advances in connectivity, cloud computing, and sensor technology have made IoT more accessible and cost-effective. With growing demands for efficiency, safety, and sustainability, industries like maritime are adopting IoT to gain real-time insights, automate operations, and stay competitive in a digital era.
The IoT technology stack includes layers like devices, connectivity, data processing, cloud platforms, and applications. Edge applications bring computation closer to the source—processing data locally on the device—enabling faster responses, reduced latency, and improved reliability in real-time maritime operations.
The IoT stack includes devices, connectivity, data processing, cloud platforms, and applications—working together to collect, transmit, analyze, and use data for smart operations.
IoT sensors collect real-time data from the environment—such as temperature, pressure, or motion—and send it to connected systems for monitoring and analysis. They are the foundation of any IoT solution.
IoT devices combine sensors, processors, and communication modules to collect and transmit data. They can range from simple trackers to complex onboard systems used in ships and industrial equipment.
IoT communication enables devices to transmit data using protocols like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cellular, or satellite. It ensures reliable, real-time data flow between sensors, systems, and cloud platforms.
An IoT cloud platform stores, processes, and analyzes data from connected devices. It enables remote monitoring, visualization, and integration with applications for smarter decision-making and automation.
IoT cloud applications provide user-friendly interfaces to access, visualize, and manage data from connected devices. They turn raw data into actionable insights for monitoring, alerts, and control.
"IoT in Action" showcases real-world applications of IoT in maritime—such as live vessel tracking, engine monitoring, and automated alerts—demonstrating how connected systems improve efficiency, safety, and decision-making.
AGWA is an IoT-based smart farming system designed for maritime environments. It enables onboard cultivation by monitoring conditions like humidity, temperature, and soil moisture—optimizing resource use and supporting sustainable food production at sea.
This practical segment reinforces learning through hands-on tasks based on the topics covered—such as sensors, communication, cloud platforms, and IoT applications—helping participants connect theory to real-world maritime scenarios.
GThis segment introduces how IoT enables predictive maintenance by using real-time sensor data to detect potential issues before they lead to failures—helping reduce downtime, optimize repairs, and enhance safety in maritime operations.
