Comment: 5 Examples of How Big Data in Logistics Can Transform The Supply Chain

Smart logistics has the latest coding, positioning, database, wireless sensor network, satellite technology, and other high-tech applications, which will generate massive amounts of data throughout the logistics process. How to mine and analyze these massive data, mine value data, and improve the efficiency of smart logistics is the core of smart logistics big data strategy. According to the process of big data on logistics information processing, the summary of smart logistics information technology in the context of big data is mainly divided into smart logistics information capture technology, smart logistics information push technology, smart logistics information processing technology, smart logistics information analysis technology and smart logistics information prediction Five aspects including technology.
I will specifically talk about Automation of warehouse and supply chain

Automation of warehouse and supply chain
Soon, the combination of big data with automation technology and the Internet of Things will make logistics a fully automated operation.
Big data allows automated systems to run by intelligently routing many different data sets and data streams. For example, Amazon’s distribution center already has automation functions. The distribution center uses only orange KIVA small robots to grab items from the shelves.
Also, if you live within 30 minutes from the center of Amazon, Amazon has automatic drones to transport items for you.
Seeing that Uber and other companies are already conducting test runs of autonomous vehicles, it is not difficult to imagine that the entire supply chain can be automated, from loading and unloading, driving to final delivery.
Perhaps humans will still participate in the last mile of the urban area, using bicycles or scooters to travel on busy city streets and reassuring transport personnel, while the suburbs will have autonomous trucks or drones to transport.

How Big Data Can Boost Weather Forecasting

張岳庭 D0741017 Source:  https://www.wired.com/insights/2013/02/how-big-data-can-boost-weather-forecasting/ Considering the number of variables involved and the complex interactions between these variables, weather forecasting has always been extremely challenging. The significant increase in data collection and processing capabilities has greatly improved the ability of weather forecasters to pinpoint the time and severity of hurricanes, floods, snowstorms and other weather events. Globally, more and more evidence of climate change is prompting governments and scientists to take action to protect people and property from its effects. But to take effective measures, they need to know more about the weather-from everything that will happen tomorrow to what will happen next year. According to the professor of economics and finance , Alan Anderson, PhD , “Example of an application of big data to weather forecasting is IBM’s Deep Thunder. Unlike many weather forecasting systems...
