Maritime Real-Time Positioning System Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growing use of RFID technology in the shipping industry to Favor Market

RFID positioning uses radio waves to determine the position or location of RFID tags attached to the shipping containers. RFID tracking is carried out using RFID container tags, which are made up of a microchip and an antenna. RFID tags attached to shipping containers emit radio frequency signals that are detectable by RFID readers. The readers extract the unique identifier from the tags to process and analyze. RFID fixed readers and antennas are installed at various points along the supply chain to track containers, including ports, warehouses, and distribution centers. As containers pass through these checkpoints, RFID tags are scanned, and the data is updated in real-time, allowing businesses to track the location and condition of their containers.

Rise in Maritime Trade

Maritime transportation is the foundation of international trade and the global economy. According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD’s) review of Maritime Transport 2023, maritime trade is expected to grow more than 2% between 2024 and 2028. In addition, according to the OECD, with the demand for global freight increases, maritime trade volumes are expected to triple by 2050. The rise in maritime trade will generate the demand for efficient navigation and tracking systems for vessels and ships to enhance the overall maritime trade operations. Thus, the rise in trade activities via marine will generate huge growth opportunities for the maritime real-time positioning system market.
