Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of multimodal transport technology, specifically to a method, system, electronic device, and medium for monitoring multimodal transport of means of transport. Background Technology

[0002] Multimodal transport refers to a transportation process jointly completed by connecting and transshipping two or more modes of transport; it is also commonly known as combined transport. In multimodal transport, different modes of transport (such as sea, land, air, and inland waterway transport) are combined according to actual needs to form a continuous and comprehensive integrated transport system. During the transport process, goods are transported through a single consignment, a single billing, a single document, and a single insurance policy, with carriers in each transport segment jointly completing the entire journey.

[0003] Anhui Province is located at the junction of the Yangtze River Delta and the Yangtze River Economic Belt. It boasts abundant resources, diverse varieties, and large reserves. The annual import and export volume of just four major categories of goods—coal, metallic ores, building materials, and non-metallic minerals—reaches billions of tons, resulting in enormous logistics demand. Rapid economic development necessitates efficient logistics, which places higher demands on the service model of the logistics industry. It requires a shift from relatively independent development of various modes of transportation to a greater emphasis on integrated development.

[0004] In multimodal transport, water transport is a mode of transportation in which ships travel on water to carry passengers and goods. Water transport is low-cost and has a large carrying capacity, and is usually used for low-cost, large-volume, long-distance transportation. It plays a major role in trunk line transportation. For example, the Yangtze River trunk line starts from Shuifu in Yunnan and ends at the mouth of the Yangtze River, with a total length of 2,843 km. Due to its large carrying capacity, low transportation cost, and suitability for bulk cargo transportation, it is one of the important water transportation trunk lines.

[0005] By the end of 2022, Anhui Province had a total inland waterway mileage of approximately 7,000 kilometers, of which 6,000 kilometers were navigable. In terms of water transport capacity, Anhui's annual water transport volume reached 1.1 billion tons; as of 2022, its total transport capacity was among the highest in the country. Furthermore, Wuhu is the core area for shipbuilding and operation, shipping companies, and the development of the inland waterway transport industry in Anhui Province, possessing a significant locational advantage.

[0006] In existing technologies, due to the different transportation forms and control mechanisms of various modes of transport such as railways, highways, and waterways, it is difficult to schedule multiple modes of transport in a timely and efficient manner for intermodal transport, and it is difficult to achieve precise control of the connection between road, rail, and water transport, resulting in low transport efficiency of multimodal transport.

[0066] Example 1

[0067] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 This embodiment provides a method for monitoring multimodal transport, including the following steps:

[0068] S11. Receive navigation data of water transport vehicles and monitor the track of the water transport vehicles; the navigation data includes waypoints, routes, and speeds;

[0069] S12. Receive driving data of the land transport vehicle and monitor the driving trajectory of the land transport vehicle; the driving data includes waypoints, driving route and driving speed;

[0070] S13. Analyze the navigation data and the driving data, and generate a first scheduling scheme;

[0071] S14. Based on the first scheduling scheme, waterway transport vehicles and land transport vehicles are scheduled to connect at the first transshipment point to realize water-land intermodal transport, wherein the first transshipment point is a route point.

[0072] In the above method, the land transport means include: trains and / or freight cars; the first transshipment point and the second transshipment point are equipped with railways for trains and / or highways for freight cars. The water transport means include: cargo ships. The first transshipment point and the second transshipment point are generally ports or wharves.

[0073] In one embodiment, the first scheduling scheme identifies a first transshipment point for water-land intermodal transport. Based on this transshipment point, a first driving control scheme for water transport vehicles and a second driving control scheme for land transport vehicles are pre-planned. The water transport vehicles travel according to the requirements of the first driving control scheme, and the land transport vehicles travel according to the requirements of the second driving control scheme. The first driving control scheme specifies the arrival time of the water transport vehicles at the first transshipment point, and then determines the specific speed requirements based on the route and time requirements. In water transport, the route is usually not complex, and there may only be one route. Similarly, the second driving control scheme specifies the arrival time of the land transport vehicles at the first transshipment point, and then determines the specific speed requirements based on the route and time requirements. In land transport, there may be multiple routes, and it is generally necessary to first determine which route to use. If the water transport vehicles controlled according to the first driving control scheme and the land transport vehicles controlled according to the second driving control scheme do not meet the conditions for docking at the transshipment point, then:

[0074] 1. Modify the first driving control scheme and the second driving control scheme;

[0075] 2. Analyze the navigation data and driving data (especially the current data) again, and generate a second scheduling plan, in which a second transfer point is set; and schedule waterway transport vehicles and land transport vehicles to dock at the second transfer point based on the second scheduling plan.

[0076] Due to various factors in waterway transportation, including channel factors (such as water depth, channel width, and channel conditions), environmental factors (such as wind strength, wind direction, and current conditions), operational factors (such as crew skill level and technical proficiency), ship maintenance factors, and economic factors (such as fuel costs and freight rates), the navigation of waterway transport vehicles differs from the first driving control scheme. Similarly, in land transportation, due to factors such as route factors (such as route selection), road condition factors (such as road grade, road conditions, and road linearity), traffic factors (such as traffic flow, congestion, and temporary traffic control), environmental factors (such as rain, snow, fog, haze, strong winds, and natural disasters), human factors (such as driver skill level, technical proficiency, and fatigue), vehicle maintenance factors, and economic factors (such as fuel costs and freight rates), the driving of land transport vehicles differs from the second driving control scheme. In such cases, the first and second driving control schemes can be further adjusted based on the current situation; alternatively, navigation and driving data can be re-analyzed to abandon the first transshipment point, set a second transshipment point, and generate a second scheduling scheme. The purpose of the above measures is to ensure that water transport vehicles arrive at the first or second transshipment point before land transport vehicles, with a certain time difference requirement, which needs to be determined based on the actual transport situation. That is, in the first scheduling scheme, the land transport vehicle must arrive at the first transshipment point earlier than the water transport vehicle for the analyzed estimated arrival time; in the second scheduling scheme, the land transport vehicle must arrive at the second transshipment point earlier than the water transport vehicle for the analyzed estimated arrival time. If the water transport vehicle has a high speed and the land transport vehicle has a slow speed, directly scheduling the land transport vehicle to travel at a low speed or even stop and wait, or to enter the first transshipment point too early, is not conducive to improving transport efficiency, occupies more manpower, and has poor fuel economy. Arriving too early makes scheduling difficult and inconvenient for turnaround. Therefore, it is preferable to schedule water transport vehicles and land transport vehicles to connect and intermodally transport at the second transshipment point.

[0077] In one embodiment, in the first scheduling scheme, the first transshipment point is determined by the waterway transport vehicle. Similarly, in the second scheduling scheme, the second transshipment point is determined by the waterway transport vehicle. Because waterway transport vehicles have poor maneuverability, accelerating and decelerating would result in excessive fuel consumption and poor economy. Therefore, waterway transport is the primary mode of transport, supplemented by land transport. Land transport involves connecting rail or road transport with waterway transport to achieve multimodal transport; hence, the first and second transshipment points are determined by the waterway transport vehicle.

[0078] In one embodiment, since there may be multiple water transport vehicles sailing simultaneously, one water transport vehicle can be scheduled from among the multiple water transport vehicles for combined water and land transport at the first transshipment point based on the first scheduling scheme, while other water transport vehicles abandon the first transshipment point; similarly, one water transport vehicle can be scheduled from among the multiple water transport vehicles for combined water and land transport at the second transshipment point based on the second scheduling scheme, while other water transport vehicles abandon the second transshipment point; the other water transport vehicles continue to the next route point and further determine the transshipment point according to the above method and carry out combined water and land transport.

[0079] In one embodiment, since there may be multiple land transport vehicles traveling simultaneously, one land transport vehicle can be dispatched from among the multiple land transport vehicles for combined land and water transport at the first transshipment point based on the first dispatching scheme, while the other land transport vehicles abandon the first transshipment point; alternatively, one land transport vehicle can be dispatched from among the multiple land transport vehicles for combined land and water transport at the second transshipment point based on the second dispatching scheme, while the other land transport vehicles abandon the second transshipment point. The other land transport vehicles continue to the next waypoint and further determine the transshipment point according to the above method and carry out combined land and water transport.

[0080] In one embodiment, a set of route points is defined as a series of consecutive route points traversed by the waterway transport vehicle, and the set of route points includes at least one such set. The first transshipment point and the second transshipment point belong to the same set of route points, or the set of route points containing the first transshipment point is adjacent to the set of route points containing the second transshipment point. This measure controls the degree of route overlap between waterway and land transport; greater route overlap leads to higher labor and fuel costs. Furthermore, after completing intermodal transport at the first transshipment point, the waterway transport vehicle will not engage in intermodal transport at another route point within the same set of route points as the first transshipment point. Further, it may also avoid intermodal transport at another adjacent set of route points. This measure controls the number of times the waterway transport vehicle enters and exits transshipment points, and accelerates and decelerates; otherwise, economic efficiency is poor, and frequent port entries and exits result in low transport efficiency and high risk. If multiple land transport vehicles are heading to the same route point or the same route point assembly at the same time, the multiple land transport vehicles will engage in a game. Based on the decision result after the game, the second land transport vehicle will be dispatched to the next route point or the next route point assembly to avoid the docking and intermodal transport between the first land transport vehicle and the water transport vehicle at the same route point or the same route point assembly.

[0081] In one embodiment, at least one of the following information is visually displayed on the electronic map: the waypoint, the route, the speed, the transit point, the travel route, the travel speed, the first transshipment point, the second transshipment point, the estimated arrival time of the waterway transport vehicle at the transshipment point, and the estimated arrival time of the land transport vehicle at the transshipment point. The visualized electronic map will facilitate the tracking, monitoring, and control of multimodal transport.

[0082] Based on the same inventive concept, and corresponding to the above-mentioned multimodal transport monitoring method, this embodiment provides a multimodal transport monitoring system, which adopts the following approach:

[0083] 1. Waterway monitoring module

[0084] The waterway monitoring module 110 is used to receive navigation data of waterway transport vehicles and monitor the track of the waterway transport vehicles; the navigation data includes waypoints, routes, and speeds;

[0085] 2. Land route monitoring module

[0086] The land monitoring module 120 is used to receive driving data of land transport vehicles and monitor the driving trajectory of the land transport vehicles; the driving data includes waypoints, driving routes and driving speeds;

[0087] 3. Analysis Module

[0088] The analysis module 130 is used to analyze the navigation data and the driving data, and generate a first scheduling scheme;

[0089] 4. Scheduling Module

[0090] The scheduling module 140 is used to schedule waterway transport vehicles and land transport vehicles to connect at the first transshipment point to realize water-land intermodal transport based on the first scheduling scheme, wherein the first transshipment point is a route point.

[0091] It should be noted that the aforementioned multimodal transport monitoring system is used to implement the multimodal transport monitoring system method, and each module in the system corresponds to each step in the method. During operation, the multimodal transport monitoring system monitors, schedules, and manages land and water transport, achieving precise and seamless connections between land and water transport vehicles to meet transport requirements. This results in efficient and error-free multimodal transport, further improving transport capacity and efficiency while also saving energy and reducing consumption.

[0092] In summary, the multimodal transport monitoring method and system of this invention is designed with waterway transport as the primary mode and land transport as a secondary mode. Land transport involves connecting rail or road transport with waterway transport to achieve multimodal transport. During multimodal transport, waterway vehicles periodically upload or, upon request, upload track points, routes, and speeds for monitoring purposes. Similarly, land transport vehicles periodically upload or, upon request, upload waypoints, routes, and speeds for monitoring purposes. The data uploaded by both waterway and land transport vehicles is encrypted and stored decentralized using blockchain technology, facilitating data analysis and research. The central monitoring system (multimodal transport monitoring system) analyzes the data and then schedules and controls rail or road transport to connect with waterway transport to achieve multimodal transport.

[0093] In the integration of waterway and land transportation, several consecutive route points (typically ports or wharves) along the waterway are designated as a set of route points. The multimodal transport monitoring system receives a specific route point (belonging to the set of route points) from the waterway vehicle for intermodal transport. The system then schedules the land vehicle to connect at that route point, ensuring the land vehicle arrives at the route point before the waterway vehicle. Based on the route point sent by the waterway vehicle, a pre-planned driving control scheme is developed for the waterway vehicle. If the driving control scheme does not meet the requirements, the system requests the waterway vehicle to change the route point for intermodal transport, and a new driving control scheme is developed until the requirements are met. If multiple land transport vehicles are heading to the same route point or the same route point assembly point at the same time, the multiple land transport vehicles will engage in a game. Based on the decision result after the game, the second land transport vehicle will be dispatched to the next route point or the next route point assembly point to avoid the docking and intermodal transport of the first land transport vehicle and the water transport vehicle at the same route point or the same route point assembly point.

[0094] The multimodal transport monitoring method and system of this invention not only offer lower transportation costs compared to rail and road transport via waterway, but also provide advantages in energy conservation and emission reduction. By monitoring the operating status of transport vehicles, multiple modes of transport can be coordinated and connected to achieve multimodal transport. Continuous dynamic monitoring allows for timely adjustments to the travel plans of various vehicles, facilitating precise and seamless connections at designated transshipment points, thereby improving the efficiency of multimodal transport. As the efficiency of multimodal transport increases, transport capacity also increases accordingly; further technological improvements aim to reduce logistics costs.

[0095] Example 2

[0096] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 This embodiment provides a method for monitoring multimodal transport, applicable to water transport vehicles (generally cargo ships). The method includes the following steps:

[0097] S21. The waterway transport vehicle transmits navigation data and monitors its track; the navigation data includes waypoints, routes, and speeds; wherein the waterway transport vehicle may transmit navigation data proactively or upon request.

[0098] S22. The waterway transport vehicle receives a first scheduling scheme, which is generated based on the navigation data of the waterway transport vehicle and the driving data of the land transport vehicle. The land transport vehicle can actively send driving data or send driving data upon request. The driving data includes waypoints, driving routes, and driving speeds.

[0099] S23. The waterway transport vehicle executes the first scheduling scheme, in which the waterway transport vehicle and the land transport vehicle connect at the first transshipment point to achieve water-land intermodal transport, wherein the first transshipment point is a route point.

[0100] In one embodiment, the waterway transport vehicle periodically transmits navigation data, and the land transport vehicle periodically transmits driving data. Periodic data transmission facilitates more precise and timely dynamic monitoring of the waterway and land transport vehicles, enabling the development of more controllable and accurate first scheduling scheme, second scheduling scheme, first driving control scheme, and second driving control scheme. For details of the first scheduling scheme, second scheduling scheme, first driving control scheme, and second driving control scheme, please refer to Embodiment 1.

[0102] 1. Waterway Transmission Module

[0104] 2. Waterway receiving module

The driving data includes waypoints, driving routes and driving speeds.

[0106] 3. Waterway Execution Module
