This example of a predictive algorithm makes it possible to predict the precise times the boats will return to port. Indeed, due to the absence of a network at sea, captains cannot announce their arrival. The prediction of the arrival time therefore allows trucks to receive the peach fruit at the right time, thus optimizing logistics operations.
From a certain size of vessel, it is mandatory to have an automatic identification system (AIS) to identify it and transmit crucial information such as its speed, GPS position, heading, etc. It is from this data that we can automatically detect the various phases of the journey (transit, fishing, return, etc.) and predict the time of arrival.
