To proceed with WP2 task 2.2 "New types of data needs" please determine the data requirements for your 'idea' untill August, 22!

Dear colleagues,
Today and yesterday I had two meetings with a) Hamburg Port Authority and b) DAKOSY (the Hamburg Port IT Service Operator).
Here comes a brief report:
a) Meeting with Hamburg Port Authority (HPA):
I have discussed the information flows and the data sources. HPA have received the WP2 questionnaires for data source identification. The first reaction was that maybe not all information can be given in such a detailed way. Several questionnaires would need to be filled for a variety of data sets. HPA has data sets about ship arrivals/departures, data about the land-modes and the road traffic situation. HPA will collect the information for relevant available source as far as currently possible.
JD (Pöyry) presented a first process chart which illustrates the container transport porcesses and the aims of the pilot. He will try to described the technical idea in further detail. The container transport process in the port regions must be analysed. The modelling of the container transport processes need more investigation and description.The innovative problem will be how to combine dafa from different data sources and to build a model for the prediction of the road traffic situation. The description of the processes is not yet so detailed that the Destia WP6 questionnaire could be filled.
The aim of the model would be:
To predict the road traffic situation in the port road network based on the knowledge of ship arrivals/departures.
It will became relevant to keep confidentiality about data as it is data about private customers.
HPA will provide data samples and studies.
HPA would be interested in taking part in the second innovation seminar, provided
- they are invited and the travel costs are borne by ROADIDEA,
- it is guaranteed that port logistics is a signification topic at the event, and the idea can be push forward significantly.
JD will revise the technical description of the application.
It was commented that DAKOSY probably could contribute significantly to the application. So a detailed discussion with DAKOSY it very important.
A next meeting is foreseen for the beginning of January 2009.
Meeting with DAKOSY:
DAKOSY have also received the questionnaires, but had not yet the time to analyse them.
There will certainly be relevant data in the IT Services TRUCKSTATION, ZAPPS, SHIPS and other.
DAKOSY will be ready for another meeting not before 9 December.
DAKOSY gave first comments on the overview chart and advised that road transport moves are also triggered by container stuffing and stripping companies, container depots and container transfers from terminal to terminal. This must be reflected in the model.
JD asked to put aside discussions about the commercial value of the data at the moment and to focus on the technical development.
Let me know if you have comments.
Best regards,
