Abstract
Digital Twins technology is a rapidly growing field that has the potential to
revolutionize the way ports operate. A digital twin is a virtual representation of a
physical component, such as a port, that allows its operations to be monitored, analyzed
and optimized in real time. This technology can be used to simulate and optimize the
movement of ships, cargo and people through a port, and to improve safety, efficiency
and sustainability. With the increasing demand for digitization in the shipping industry,
the technology of digital twins in ports is becoming more widespread. This paper aims
to investigate the application of the above technology in ports, focusing on the ports of
Piraeus, Thessaloniki and Patras, which are the three largest ports of Greece. This paper
presents a study on the application of digital twins in ports, with an emphasis on digital
twins technology in shipping. Specifically, Digital Twins technologies that can be
applied in the ports of Piraeus, Thessaloniki and Patras are being examined. The method
used in this work is the bibliographic review of studies, articles and information from
the international literature related to the topic.
