Abstract
Global trade has reached an ever seen level thanks to globalization. Maritime transportation covers an important role in responding to the growing demand of products from all around the globe. Due to the global travelling, products experienced several environment conditions; in the case of perishable goods, significant variations of transport conditions can spoil their quality, causing huge losses to the vendor. Thus, the environment control in freight car-go is a compelling solution to guarantee product quality during the transporta-tion phase. In this paper, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) systems are present-ed as an effective and low cost solution to identify not adequate transportation conditions, i.e. temperature, humidity, light exposition; moreover, collected da-ta can be processed to control product quality, ensuring product safety to users and certification to vendors.
