      1.3 Digital logistics

      The use of IoT for operational monitoring of cargo movement and the condition of objects of the transport process in online mode is aimed at accelerating the promotion of cargo flows and reducing the cost of cargo delivery. The creation of a unified information network that consolidates data on the movement of goods with other sources of information allows for optimal interaction with shippers and consignees and to improve the quality of logistics services, which makes the logistics process more open. [39]

      Logistics is one of the first areas in which the introduction of IoT technology has begun for the implementation of intelligent, networked and automated logistics operations, where the Internet acts as a necessary tool.

      The logistics sphere is one of the most important in which the Internet of Things technologies have become widespread due to the fact that it is characterized by large volumes of moved, tracked and interacting objects.

      As indicated, the availability of modern intelligent logistics systems has a great influence on the economic competitiveness of the country. To ensure the rapid pace of formation and implementation of cargo supply chains in electronic commerce, it is necessary to use digital tools to optimize demand forecasting and rational inventory planning of goods in warehouses in various geographical regions in order to reduce the cost of delivery and the time of turnover of goods. This has determined the change of trends at the present time from the optimization of commodity movement to the optimization of information flows.

      The key goal is the transition from warehouse, transport and trade logistics to distribution logistics, based on an optimal analysis of the requirements of buyers and consumers, taking into account the criterion of maximum proximity to places of sale or use for rational supply chain management.

      IoT makes it possible to make the procurement planning system more accessible to the customer, taking into account logistics costs, by increasing transparency and relevance of information about all offers.

      The following areas of application of IoT in the logistics complex can be distinguished:

      1) autonomous warehouse equipment;

      2) control of the current location and dislocation of goods, inventory of the warehouse, tracking of goods throughout the supply chain;

      3) prevention of misuse of transport and theft of fuel.

      Logistics intellectualization is based on the principles of intelligent management and integration of all parts of the logistics process into an integration system with the lowest costs

      The Internet of Things can implement functions such as intelligent identification, positioning, tracking, monitoring and management of various objects (including people).

      Modern realities have identified logistics needs and at the same time put forward new requirements for logistics companies, such as the ability to receive and transmit logistics information in a timely and accurate manner and provide customers with real-time information.

      Building a digital ecosystem of transport logistics will allow the user to calculate the cost of cargo transportation, promptly send a request for transportation, and organize monitoring of this process. [45]
