Cargo at Kempegowda International Airport to get RFID tech boost

Air India SATS Airport Services Pvt Ltd (AISATS) has launched a new shipment tracking platform which uses Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology for its cargo handling operations at the Kempegowda International Airport, making it the first air cargo terminal operator in the country to use this technology. AISATS is the biggest ground handler at the airport, managing two dedicated cargo handling centres. RFID technology will enable it to undertake real-time cargo tracking for end-to-end visibility and faster turnaround. The RFID tracking system, capable of processing large quantities of cargo, will further bolster speed and accuracy, thereby making the cargo handling process more secure.
