As a journalist, I've become something of an expert in cosmic-ray tomography in recent months, having explored the technology, which is used to non-destructively investigate structures and buildings, in articles for different publications. Its use for container scanning was new to me, but I quickly realized the benefits over systems currently in use, which if fully realized pending further R&D, could transform security in ports in terms of scanning speed, accuracy and safety. While the information available at the start appeared sketchy, insights from my reliable industry sources helped me shape a story that goes deeper into this developing subject from the Indian industry context. Maersk were exceptionally forthcoming on what I sought to know and this proactive approach added considerable value to the content. The research work was arduous, but it was one of the most enriching experiences in my nearly two-decade maritime reporting journey. |
