Connect API will help in the digitalization of the air cargo industry by automating the transfer of data from DG AutoCheck to other systems in the industry\u2019s value chain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This connectivity has been enabled via IBS Software\u2019s iCargo solution, which is currently being Implemented across dnata\u2019s global network.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Connect API can be used flexibly in line with user priorities. dnata, for example plans to use Connect API to link its warehouse management system (iCargo) to DG AutoCheck to automate the creation of notifications to captain (NOTOC). Other potential applications include linking DG AutoCheck to operational or accounting systems and cargo management systems (CMS).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEfficiently exchanging data with Connect API will help deliver the speed, quality, compliance and ultimately safety benefits of digitalization that air cargo customers are demanding. These benefits are real and measurable. Today it can take up to 100 minutes to get flight crew of freighter operations, detailed information on dangerous goods in the payload through NOTOC systems. With Connect API, this will be instantaneous. We are proud to be launching Connect API with dnata, bringing benefits to their customers,\u201d said Frederic Leger, IATA\u2019s Senior Vice President Commercial Products and Services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are delighted to deliver this innovation to our customers. Connecting iCargo to DG AutoCheck through Connect API will accelerate dangerous goods acceptance checks while enabling the highest level of safety, compliance, and efficiency throughout the handling process. In addition, we will be able to further optimize our operations through the data by our systems working more efficiently together,\u201d said Guillaume Crozier dnata\u2019s SVP UAE Cargo and Global Cargo Strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>dnata\u2019s iCargo is powered by IBS Software. \u201cThe seamless integration of DG AutoCheck with iCargo will help deliver significant benefits for dnata. It also paves the way to build confidence across the industry of what can be achieved through the real-time availability of operational information on dangerous goods and how that can be used to drive operational efficiencies,\u201d said Ashok Rajan, SVP and Global Head of Cargo &amp; Logistics, IBS Software.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Editor:msserwanga@gmail.com<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0(Istanbul) &#8211;\u00a0The International Air Transport Association (IATA) announced that\u00a0dnata\u00a0has become the first company to adopt \u2018Connect API\u2019, the newest feature<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8910,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[180,197],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8909","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-aviation","category-international-news"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/iata-1.jpg","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":11675,"url":"https:\/\/prowebinhost.com\/anzu\/iata-stresses-sustainability-digitalization-and-safety-in-air-cargo\/","url_meta":{"origin":8909,"position":0},"title":"IATA Stresses Sustainability, Digitalization and Safety in Air Cargo","author":"UgandaUpdate","date":"March 19, 2024","format":false,"excerpt":"By Our Reporters The International Air Transport Association (IATA) reviewed progress in digitalization, safety and sustainability at the opening of the\u00a0IATA World Cargo Symposium\u00a0with the aim of accelerating progress on these critical priorities.\u00a0 \u201cAir cargo volumes are now firmly back to pre-pandemic levels.
