Fusion Application Mode of IoT and Blockchain in the Field of Specialized Air Logistics

Specialized air logistics service is an important field of air logistics, providing important support for the operation of the industrial chain, the development of the economy, society, and people's livelihood. At present, the digitalization level of specialized air logistics needs to be improved, and it is of great significance to study how to apply digital technologies to improve its service level. IoT and blockchain are advanced digital technologies, and the analysis of research status shows that although the application research of advanced technologies in the logistics field is becoming increasingly active, there are few literature analyses on how to integrate IoT and blockchain to improve specialized air logistics service. This study first analyzes the main problems in the digitalization process of specialized air logistics, and then elaborates on the coupling mechanism between the technological advantages of IoT and blockchain and the demand for improving specialized air logistics service. Based on this, special cargo air logistics, emergency air logistics, and cold chain air logistics are selected as representative fields. Taking live animals, emergency medical materials, and vaccines as examples, three typical application modes are constructed applying IoT and blockchain, effectively improving the service level and guarantee capability of specialized air logistics.
