Intermodal Terminal Eco-Efficiency Calculator (ITEC)

Identification of the efficiency and performance of intermodal terminals is now possible for the first time, making use of the Intermodal Terminal Eco-Efficiency Calculator (ITEC) “Green” transport chains become more and more important. In this context, intermodal terminals are key drivers for competitiveness and sustainability of multimodal transport. However, within the calculation of the transport…

The Combined Transport of Dangerous Goods

The transport of dangerous goods in combined transport rail-road is a complex issue. The recent information has been summarized in a small brochure for daily use in the framework of the DESTINY project. The brochure is available in several languages on the project’s website. The information is also relevant for intermodal terminals so that KombiConsult publishes the brochure also on the AGORA website.

Gate Automation mit OCR-Technologien Workshop (DE)

ntermodale-/KV-Terminals werden durch steigende Anforderungen an den Check-in und die Dokumentation ihrer Gate-Abläufe herausgefordert, um die Sicherheit und den Haftungs-übergang zu gewährleisten. Die Europäische Norm EN 13044 (2010) standardisiert die Identifikation Intermodaler Ladeeinheiten. Vor diesem Hintergrund wurden Video-/Kamera-Portale und optische Bilderkennungstechnologien (OCR-technologies) in vielen Häfen aber auch schon einigen Binnenterminals implementiert.
Schlüsselnutzer und Hersteller möchten ihre Erfahrungen mit Ihnen austauschen und wir laden Sie daher herzlich ein zu unserem Tages-Workshop zum Thema “Gate-Automation mit OCR-Technologien” am 17.Oktober 2013 in Mannheim, Deutschland.

Gate Automation with OCR-Technologies Workshop

Intermodal terminals are challenged by increasing requirements for checking and documenting their gate processes. It is not only that safety and security are relevant but also the liability change. The European Norm EN 13044 (2010) standardizes the identification of intermodal loading units. Against that background camera portals and Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technologies have been implemented in numerous ports, but also some continental intermodal terminals.
Key users and their suppliers would like to share their experiences with you and we kindly invite you to attend our one day workshop on “Gate automation with OCR-technologies” on 17.Oktober 2013, in Mannheim, Germany.
