Synopsis

Ensuring the safe transportation of hazardous materials is crucial for safeguarding both the environment and human well-being. The integration of IoT and blockchain technology in smart transportation systems has the potential to transform the cargo industry by providing efficient, secure, and reliable tracking and management of cargo throughout the supply chain. By utilizing IoT sensors to track cargo in real-time and storing the data on a decentralized blockchain platform, intermediaries can be eliminated, reducing costs, and increasing transparency. The use of smart contracts can automate many processes, reducing manual intervention and improving the speed and accuracy of transactions. This paper suggests a blockchain and IoT-based smart transportation model for cargo to monitor the sensor data in a safe and secure way.
