RISING – RIS Services for Improving the Integration of Inland Waterway Transports into Intermodal Chains

August 2, 2017in Projects 0 Likes

BASIC  PROJECT  DATA

Project ID: PA1A106

 

NEED  AND  ADDED  VALUE  FOR  THE  DANUBE  REGION  STRATEGY

Inland Waterway Transport (IWT) has become an integral part of co-modal transport and logistics chains. As such, the IWT sector has to comply with requirements of supply chain management (SCM). Effective transport infrastructure and high-performance Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) play a key role in this process and must be developed further.

Based on River Information Services (RIS) new RIS services have been developed which support transport and logistics operators.

 

OBJECTIVE(S)  OF  THE  PROJECT

RISING had the overall objective of identifying, integrating and further developing information services such as River Information Services (RIS) in order to efficiently support Inland Waterway Transport (IWT) and logistics operations.

 

CONDUCTED  PROJECT  ACTIVITIES

In the RISING project new RIS services for transport and logistics operations have been specified, developed, programmed, tested and demonstrated. In the end, about 15 new RIS services have been elaborated for their use by the European transport and logistics companies. These new RISING services support the commercial IWT and multimodal operators in their daily business processes, such as transport planning and transport monitoring.

 

TRANSBOUNDARY  IMPACT

Within the project the newly developed RIS services have been demonstrated in three main geographical areas in Europe:

1) Rhine/Scheldt
2) German waterways (here: Weser, Elbe)
3) the river Danube

 

PROJECT  BENEFICIARIES  /  TARGET  GROUPS

The addressed users for the newly RIS services are enterprises from the European inland waterway and multimodal transport sector.

Who can benefit from the RIS services for transport and logistics:

  • Inland ports and terminals,
  • Inland waterway operators, fleet operators,
  • Logistics service providers.

 

 

STATUS  AND  TIMEFRAME

Start date: 01.02.2009
End date: 31.07.2012
The project is already concluded.

 

 

FINANCING

Total budget: 7,517,928.74 EUR
EU funds: 5,279,859.88 EUR were funded by FP7- Seventh Frameworkprogramme for Research and Technological Development “TRANSPORT” 2007 – 2013
National funds: amount unknown
Private funds: amount unknown

PROJECT  REQUIREMENTS

The RISING project has been completed end of July 2012. Next, for a successful project deployment an international RIS data exchange and usage of the new RISING services by the addressed commercial inland waterway operators is essential.

 

FOLLOW – UP  PROJECT

The results of the RISING project, here new River Information Services for transport and logistics users, were and will be taken up by other European projects, such as the IRIS Europe 3 project.
