Climate change means we are increasingly experiencing extreme weather conditions. i4sea develops accurate models that forecast the status of tides, currents, waves, wind and precipitation at a hyper-local level and advises about the predicted impact of weather on the operations of terminals, pilots, etc.
In the forthcoming period the port of Rotterdam Authority and i4sea will be conducting a study into whether this information can add value to maritime traffic control.
i4sea was one of the participants of the PortXL 2021 innovation accelerator programme. Together with seven other start-ups and scale-ups from all over the world they took part in this 100-day programme. PortXL’s intensive programme helps young enterprises to hit the ground running when they enter the market. PortXL was launched in 2015. So far, it has run ten programmes, fast-tracked more than 100 start-ups and scale-ups and facilitated the signing of more than 220 contracts.
