| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 交通運輸研究所 === 96 === In the air transportation, dangerous goods handling is a critical activity, especially with the air cargo volume and items increasing dramatically. Thus, how to handle dangerous goods efficiently and safely is becoming a crucial issue. The Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), a new generation of electronic information service offering unrivalled opportunities for the automated identification of fast-moving objects, is regarded as a turning point to increase the efficiency of air cargo handling, particularly for dangerous goods. This study focuses on the domastic air cargo wharehousing industry, and clarifies the potential problems within dangerous goods handling processes by practical interviews. The before-and-after comparison is followed to explore the diversities of wharehousing process with the RFID introduced. Meanwhile, both qualitative and quantitative analyses are preceded for assessing the probale benefits. According to the analysis results, the dangerous goods handling time could be approximately decreased 43% per month, due to the sheet fill-in reduced and cargo information reading speed increased; and the potential hazards with the wharehousing processes could be diminished obviously, due to automatic quantity-checkup and active temperature-detection. In conclusion, there will be a deal of benefits for the dangerous goods wharehousing in air transportation if RFID technology is introduced into.
