Smart gates for smart terminals.
One gate standard for every terminal.
With operateMybox GOS, terminal gate processes become fully digital, secure, and standardized — from truck arrival and identification to container handover and departure.
Built as a cloud-ready module, GOS connects every stakeholder: truckers, dispatchers, and terminal staff including containers, equipment and operators.
Overview
operateMybox GOS is the digital gate control system for container terminals within the operateMybox ecosystem.
It manages all in- and outbound truck movements, coordinates slot bookings, ensures secure container handover through digital release rights, and synchronizes operational data with the terminal’s TOS.
Core Capabilities

Scheduler - Intelligently assigning tasks
Optimizes job instructions, ensuring the most efficient allocation of CHEs. By intelligently assigning and sequencing tasks, the scheduler boosts productivity, minimizes empty moves and idle times, and reduces unnecessary emissions.
- API Service
- Solver Dispatcher
- Route/Traffic predictions (TTE Engine)
- Result Handler
Smart Planning & Operational Optimization
Optimizing terminal and depot operations through AI and data intelligence.
operateMybox Scheduler uses advanced AI-driven algorithms to optimally allocate job instructions to CHE.
When connected to the ADCS data lake — providing real-time insights from all equipment — the system applies machine learning to forecast driving and waiting times under current conditions, such as weather or time of day. This ensures that scheduling mirrors the true operating environment. As a result, it enables fully data-driven planning and automatically adjusts to changing circumstances.
Overview
operateMybox Scheduler is the AI-driven decision-making engine within the operateMybox ecosystem.
It connects directly with terminal and depot systems, analyzes historical and live data to support forecasting, and optimizes the assignment of job instructions.
The module includes scheduling solvers tailored to various terminal configurations, including SC, RTG, SC/ASC, and ATT/ASC environments. Its time travel estimation (TTE) engine predicts travel and waiting times based on real-time traffic and weather conditions. The module can also be integrated with commercial simulation tools to evaluate scenarios and terminal configurations.
Core Capabilities
Optimization Solver — Determines the optimal allocation, sequence, and pickup/drop-off times for job instructions while considering operational goals and constraints.
TTE Engine — Builds a road network from CHE telemetry and uses historical as well as real-time data to predict travel and waiting times based on current CHE positions.
Simulation Integration — Connects with commercial simulation software to support scenario testing and configuration analysis.
Collaborative Schedulers — Schedulers for different CHEs, e.g., SCs and ASCs, can collaborate to optimize handshakes.
Customizable Settings and Operational Strategies — Solvers can be tailored through a variety of configuration options and support different operational concepts, including pooling and cycling.
API-First Design — Offers a modern, developer-friendly API for seamless system integration.
Cross-Terminal Deployment — Supports a wide range of terminal layouts and CHE configurations.
Flexible Hosting — Available for on-premise or cloud-based deployment.
The Scheduler Difference
TOS-based scheduling often focuses on one container at a time, missing the bigger picture. operateMybox Scheduler uses AI-driven optimization to find the global optimum for all job instructions across the terminal.
By incorporating real-time insights and forecasts into the planning process, it enables proactive, efficient, and resource-optimized operations.
Your Benefits
Higher Productivity — Globally optimized schedules reduce bottlenecks and improve equipment utilization.
Reduced Waiting Times — Predictive insights help avoid queues at cranes, blocks, and interchange points.
Increased Service Reliability — More stable and predictable operations improve berth productivity and vessel turnaround times.
Faster Response to Disruptions — Real-time data enables immediate adjustments to weather changes, traffic peaks, or equipment issues.
Fewer Empty Moves — Coordinated planning minimizes unnecessary travel and increases operational efficiency.
Lower Fuel Consumption & Emissions — Smarter routes and fewer idle periods cut energy use and environmental impact.
Better Use of Existing Assets — AI-driven optimization unlocks performance gains without additional equipment.
Consistent Decision Quality — Automated scheduling eliminates manual variability and ensures objective, data-driven assignments.

Automatic Data Collecting System
From data to decisions
operateMybox ADCS combines data logging, location tracking and data fusion to create deeper operational insights and predictive capabilities.
As the digital backbone of the operateMybox ecosystem, ADCS turns equipment and process data into actionable intelligence for smarter, more resilient terminal operations.
Overview
operateMybox ADCS is the data pipeline for the operateMybox platform. It connects field devices, operational systems, and analytics applications, continuously collecting and refining real-time data from cranes, straddle carriers, reach stackers, and yard systems. The product creates a unified data foundation that powers monitoring and predictive maintenance across all terminals.
It’s the enabler for AI-driven decision support – from real-time operations to long-term optimization – which lays the foundation for future applications as simulation-based optimization of transport and storage as well as real-time analytics and 3D visualization. The basis for ADCS is the publicly funded research project “Twin Sim.”
Core Capabilities
operateMybox ADCS is structured in modular building blocks. At the foundation lies the Datalogger Infrastructure & Data layer – the core module responsible for collecting and refining equipment and sensor data from the terminal.
Data Fusion — Combines operational data (TOS, SAP) with IIoT and sensor data in one stream.
Access Control — Digital authentication and usage control for equipment and personnel.
Data Logging (Datalogger) — Records up to 300 values per device (telemetry data), from GNSS location to engine and lifting data.
Location Tracking — Container and equipment geolocation for faster identification and reduced search times.
On top of this base, the next active development layers are Access, Location, and Fusion TOPX, which together provide secure device access, precise geolocation, and the merging of operational (TOS) and machine data.
The TwinSim Foundation
ADCS is the operational successor to the TwinSim research project, which developed a fully functional digital twin for container terminals (EUROGATE Technical Services + EGH IT + University of Hamburg). Building on this foundation, EUROGATE Technical Services and IT jointly developed the ADCS product.
TwinSim validated that real-time equipment data, when connected with TOS and ERP systems, can drive simulations, what-if analyses, and predictive maintenance. ADCS now operationalizes this concept — turning research into daily practice.
