Travel, Transport & Logistics
Improve safety on roadways, anticipate delays, maintain fleets and analyze the optimal routes to chart a course for an exciting and profitable future.
Why AI Now?
The transport of people and goods, always fundamental to society, is undergoing a dramatic change. Smart roadways and vehicles give AI the opportunity to improve efficiency and safety beyond what drivers can do on their own. Maintenance of fleets and infrastructure can be undertaken based on precise predictions about which assets will need repair next, eliminating guesswork or routine scheduling. Ride sharing, as both a consumer and commercial practice, is redefining what it even means to be in the transport business. And we are on the verge of astounding and disruptive new forms of travel, such as hyperloop, which will be made possible by machine learning and advanced analytics. Industry players clinging to the past will swiftly be left behind. With RapidMiner, travel, transport and logistics companies can chart a course for an exciting and profitable future.
