Main Goal
The main objective of the project is to develop a Service Platform for Green European Transportation (GET), that facilitates real-time aggregated planning, synchro-modal (re-)planning, reduction of empty miles and co-modal planning, as described above.
Objectives
In order to achieve this major goal the project has identified the following objectives:
-
Developing facilities for providing real-time transportation information that is aggregated from a multiple sources, including (cooperative) devices, such as route planning devices and transportation infrastructure sensors, and information systems from transportation stakeholders, such as shipping companies and road managers;
-
Developing novel transportation and route planning algorithms that use real-time aggregated information for green and efficient planning;
-
Developing support for the creation of services that encapsulate transportation- and logisticsrelated tasks. Developing support for controlling those services according to the transportation or route plan, including the automated rollback, cancellation and re-execution of services when changes are made to the transportation plan;
-
Developing end-user services, which use the information aggregation, planning and control facilities to enable user scenarios related to real-time aggregated planning, synchro-modal (re-) planning, reduction of empty miles and co-modal planning.
-
Developing viable business models for the platform, taking into account the perspectives of the various stakeholders involved, including both end-users service providers and information and intermediate-level service providers;
-
Demonstrably improving the efficiency of transportation and reducing CO2 emission.
