European e-freight capabilities for co-modal transport (E-FREIGHT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

The key issues that will be addressed in e-Freight are:1. Intra-European trade is complicated due to disconnected logistic chains. This hindrance conflicts with the legitimate ambition of achieving a European maritime transport space without barriers. Linked to these issues is the broader need for simplification and harmonisation of regulatory requirements and accelerated development of EU and Nat ...

Maritime Assisted Volumetric Navigation System (ARIADNA)

Start date: Nov 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

"A Volumetric Navigation System (VNS) started with great interest in new traffic navigation solutions considering certain scenarios in which all the vehicles share information in order to be part of a collaborative navigation network. In those scenarios, 3D volume dimensions are used to define the position of an associated volumetric envelope in time. In the maritime navigation the “volume” of the ...

RIS services for improving the integration of inland waterway transports into intermodal chains (RISING)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

River Information Services (RIS) are operational in European waterway corridors in a variety of sophistication levels. Their major objective is to collect and distribute river related information in order to support not only public waterways authorities, but also commercial operators in the Inland Waterway Transport (IWT) sector. The use of such information for logistics purposes is still quite un ...
