River transport disruptions threaten European supply chains during extreme weather events

European businesses relying on inland waterway transport (Danube, Rhine) face unpredictable cargo delays and route closures during droughts and floods caused by extreme climate events. Logistics companies and manufacturers lack real-time visibility and contingency solutions when water levels become impassable, forcing expensive alternative transportation or production halts. Current weather forecasting and logistics planning tools fail to provide actionable early warnings specific to navigable waterway conditions.
