Abstract

With ICT advances, more information on truck and freight position, safety, energy consumption, emissions is
available in the supply chain. Efficient management and integration of the increasing amount of data is a key
challenge in freight transport and logistics. This paper builds a framework for a unified single freight window,
integrating administrative and technical procedures. The window can serve as freight transport facilitator for
improved coordination of multimodal operations at transfer hubs by providing static and real-time digital
information on key characteristics, e.g. travel time, energy efficiency, GHG emissions. Its interface requirements
are to be standardized so that expansion into new processes is facilitated. A logic and services for the Safe and
Secure Truck Parking Area (SSTPA) component of unified window are also developed. The logic employs training
data from Egypt and Greece. The feasibility, capabilities, vulnerabilities and monitoring of SSTPA are tested in
project CROCODILE2. Test results reveal the positive effect of the new services on truck time and energy budgets.
