Port of Ponce
Scale Upgrades the Port of Ponce
Scale’s Smart Port Lab is being built in the Port of Ponce, Puerto Rico.
What is Scale doing for the Port of Ponce?
Scale is building a Smart Port Lab where AI-enabled infrastructure will be researched, built, and exported to shipping ports globally. The Smart Port Lab will feature autonomous inspection systems, container identification and tracking, AI-powered document processing, drive-by-wire cranes and bomb carts, and advanced surveillance.
Why the Port of Ponce?
The Port of Ponce was recently hit by a series of natural disasters, including the 2020 earthquakes, Hurricane Maria, and, most recently, Hurricane Fiona. Scale’s investment to establish a Smart Port Lab at Port Ponce is an opportunity to bring global shipping and logistics customers to the local area, increase port activity, and aid in the economic revitalization of the city of Ponce.
How will Scale build the Smart Port?
Scale is partnering with the Ponce Port Authority and investing more than $2 million to transform the Port of Ponce from a FEMA designated disaster site to a Smart Port Lab. AI-enabled Smart Port infrastructure and technology augments workers’ capabilities, enhances operational processes at the port, and modernizes shipping and transportation equipment where innovation has traditionally been stagnant.
