The prediction of Fuzhou port´s throughput

The port´s throughput prediction is an important part in the port development strategy study. The correct throughput prediction is of significance to the reasonable port layout and transportation planning. On the basis of the development of Fuzhou port, this paper collects the data of Fuzhou port´s throughput in 1998-2003, and uses the GM (1,1), the new information GM (1,1) as well as the metabolic GM (1,1) to forecast and compare the Fuzhou port´s throughput in 2004-2006.
