Abstract

A logistics information processing server includes a data processor configured to receive environment sensing data collected from at least one environmental sensor disposed in a cargo storage device in which at least one cargo is stored and cargo related information collected from a cargo tag attached to the at least one cargo, and to perform processing by classifying the environment sensing data and the cargo related data into cargo storage environment data, cargo information, and transportation environment information according to data attributes; and a logistics trust index generator configured to generate a logistics trust index indicating a degree of influence exerted on the quality of the cargo from the cargo storage environment data, cargo information, and transportation environment information output by the data processor.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A logistics information processing server interworking with at least one cargo storage device via a network, the logistics information processing server comprising:
a data processor receiving, via the network, environment sensing data generated by at least one environmental sensor included in the at least one cargo storage device in which at least one cargo is stored and receiving, via the network, cargo related data generated by a tag reader/writer and wirelessly read from a cargo tag attached to the at least one cargo, the tag reader/writer also being included in the at least one cargo storage device, the data processor processing and converting the environment sensing data and the cargo related data into cargo storage environment data, cargo information, and transportation environment information according to data attributes; and
a logistics trust index generator generating a logistics trust index indicating a degree of influence exerted on the quality of the cargo from the cargo storage environment data, cargo information, and transportation environment information generated by the data processor, and
a service management server generating environmental control data on the basis of the logistics trust index, transmitting the generated environmental control data to the at least one logistics storage device, and generating a recommendation service for logistics management according to the logistics trust index for each product,
wherein the logistics trust index is calculated by comparing a cargo storage environment parameter extracted from the cargo storage environment data with an environmental parameter durability range,
wherein, when the cargo storage environment parameter is included in the environmental parameter durability range, the logistics trust index is set as a maximum value, and wherein the logistics trust index is displayed through a trust index display apparatus in the at least one cargo storage device, such that the logistics trust index is generated by an Equation 1 in consideration of a transportation time of the cargo and a type of an environmental parameter, wherein

in Equation 1, LT represents a logistics trust index, Wj is a weight of an environmental parameter j, LT_max is a maximum value of a logistics trust index, Di is a logistics trust offset value reduced from LT_max, Ti is an observation time slot for updating the logistics trust index, and D_T is a total logistics transportation time.

2. The logistics information processing server of claim 1 , wherein the logistics trust index generator generates logistics management data including the logistics trust index for the cargo and at least one piece of information among a cargo number of the cargo, a type of the cargo, a road, a time, a season, and a name of a driver.

3. The logistics information processing server of claim 1 , wherein the logistics trust index is variably set according to a type of a cargo storage environment parameter extracted from the cargo storage environment data and a transportation time of the cargo.

4. The logistics information processing server of claim 3 , wherein the cargo storage environment parameter includes a parameter related to at least one among temperature, humidity, vibration, and atmospheric pressure inside the cargo storage device.

5. The logistics information processing server of claim 1 , wherein, when the cargo storage environment parameter deviates from the environmental parameter durability range, the logistics trust index is reduced from the maximum value by an offset value that is set depending on an extent to which the cargo storage environment parameter deviates from the environmental parameter durability range.

6. A logistics managing system comprising:
at least one cargo storage device;
a logistics information processing server receiving, in real-time via the network, environment sensing data collected from at least one environmental sensor disposed in a remote cargo storage device in which at least one cargo is stored and receiving, in real-time via the network, cargo related data generated by a tag reader/writer and wirelessly read and collected from a cargo tag attached to the at least one cargo, the logistics information processing server classifying the environment sensing data and the cargo related data into cargo storage environment data, cargo information, and transportation environment information according to data attributes, and the logistics information processing server generating a logistics trust index indicating a degree of an influence exerted on the quality of the cargo from the cargo storage environment data, cargo information, and transportation environment information; and
a service management server generating environmental control data on the basis of the logistics trust index, transmitting the generated environmental control data to the at least one logistics storage device, and generating a recommendation service for logistics management according to the logistics trust index for each product,
wherein the logistics trust index is, calculated by comparing a cargo storage environment parameter extracted from the cargo storage environment data with an environmental parameter durability range,
wherein, when the cargo storage environment parameter is included in the environmental parameter durability range, the logistics trust index is set as a maximum value, and
wherein the logistics trust index is displayed through a trust index disp
