Abstract
About 74% of imports/exports and 37% of exchanges go through ports, making Europe highly dependent on ports for external and internal trade. In the European container supply chain, Short Sea Shipping (SSS) as well as inland waterways are not so well integrated in contrast to Deep Sea Shipping (DSS) ports (also referred to as Hub ports). MOSES is a European project, funded under the Horizon 2020 Work Programme, which aims to significantly enhance the SSS component of the European container supply chain by addressing the vulnerabilities and strains that relate to the operation of large containerships. The project develops a number of components that function as nodes of the Physical Internet, consisting of a number of data sources that when combined can lead to the development of meaningfull applications. Based on the technical innovations that are designed and developed, MOSES aims to reduce the environmental footprint for SSS and ports and improve the efficiency and end-toend delivery times of SSS mode. In parallel, it will enable the promotion of smart port development with minimal investment and the development of concrete business cases.
