The Asian Logistics, Maritime and Aviation Conference (ALMAC) 2025 brought together regional logistics and supply-chain leaders to explore new trends shaped by geopolitics, sustainability, and innovation. Mr. Tony Chan, Business Development Director of Esri China (Hong Kong), was invited to share insights on future logistics technologies and the rise of drone-based delivery.

Mr. Chan highlighted how the ArcGIS-powered UTM, integrated with multi-source data from the Common Spatial Data Infrastructure (CSDI) Portal, strengthens flight path planning and simulation for emerging low-altitude logistics operations. He further emphasized the expanding role of GIS in modern logistics—supporting route optimization, warehouse siting, real-time cargo visibility, cross-border modelling, and ESG reporting such as carbon-footprint mapping. By combining spatial analytics with real-time mapping platforms, organizations can enhance transparency, resilience, and operational efficiency.
