Fuzzy AHP Approach to The Determinatıon of Smart Port Dimensions: A Case Study on Filyos Port

Abstract

As ports play a very important role in the national and international flow of goods, with the development of international trade, they face many challenges such as operational congestion, pollution, energy consumption and safety and security issues. Therefore, ports need to increase their operational efficiency and also pay attention to sustainability principles. The smart port is a digital transformation that adopts new technologies to improve efficiency and environmental issues. Existing ports and new ports have to be transformed into smart ports so that countries can get a share from international logistics. Smart port applications vary according to ports characteristics, as port needs are different. Thus, it is necessary to analyze ports to develop compatible smart port applications. However, in the literature, there is a lack of studies focuses on the smart port. The main purpose of this study is to examine smart port dimensions by considering Filyos Port. We have used fuzzy AHP for ordering each dimension and sub-dimensions to relative importance. The findings of the study show that operation is the most crucial factor, which is followed by environment, energy, finance and safety and security, respectively. Finally, we offered suggestions for each smart port dimensions.
