the role of the INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY for the development of the marine transport in the Mediterranean



Last week near the Angelic Library to Rome the workshop has been carried out " - the results of the projects ‘MoS24’ are ITS Adriatic Multiport Gateway’" that it has seen the participation of the representatives of the involved Harbour Authorities in the realization of the two projects, of the Agency of Customs and the ministry of Infrastructures and the Transports.

In the course of the encounter, moderated by Tommaso Affinita, managing director of RAM Spa, the participants have described the operation of the technological platforms of support to MoS24 and ITS Adriatic Multiport Gateway that allow to harmonize and to simplify the harbour procedures, let alone the exchange of data between the involved authorities. The positive results up to now harvests, in terms of the time and cost reduction of the harbour operations - it is found - evidence the urgency on one side to continue with this type of approach face to develop immaterial axis a which necessary completion of the infrastructural participations, from the other the necessity to increase the level of integration of the involved operators, determining element for the success of these initiatives. Contextually to this it will be then also necessary to face the problem of the governance and therefore of the strengthening of the institutional role and the relations between the partner private publics and.

The outcomes of the project MoS 24, whose coordination is entrusted to the Harbour Authority of Genoa in quality of front man, are illustrated for the genoese agency by Francesca Moglia: objective of the project is the creation of a digital platform, in addition to the existing platforms, that it allows the coordination and the interconnection of the operating systems INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY on Corridor 24, returning them available for the creation of an extensive net of intermodal services. For this purpose MoS 24 Demo Platform, realized from Selex - Finmeccanica group (project partner), allows to carry out the Planning and Booking of a service of intermodal transport through international operators, so as Tracking and Tracing of the cargo, promuovendo contextually the dialogue and the exchange of information with the others unwinds logistic of the Corridor and the respective systems INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY, that project partner will interact with platform UIRNET (). In the within of the project MoS 24 also some preliminary experiments for the exchange of data with the Korean are realized Window Single, although the final implementation of this initiative depends on the results of the project Honey, promoted from the MIT.

Teresa Alvaro, central director Technologies for the innovation of the Agency of Customs, has illustrated the progresses completed on the plan of customs the Window Single to the aim to face the challenges of the new globalization and to simplify the cycle import/export: the main innovations on this forehead are represented by the complete digitalisation of the customs regimes and by the meaningful reduction of the times of the clearance that, according to a survey of December 2012, turn out to oscillate for 95.81% of the goods between the 12 second ones and the five minutes. This result has been possible thanks to the performance of the program "Window Single", an interoperability platform that allows to coordinate the implementations and the controls connected to the clearance by the 18 involved administrations and that it is able to converse with the SafeSeaNet, previewed from directive 2010/65/UE, as immaterial place in which information are put on of the several competent authorities and the Member States.

Regarding the Adriatic depositor, project ITS Adriatic Multiport Gateway, in the perspective of a balance of the imbalance between the ports of the North and South Europe, has intended to elaborate a study on the future traffics container that interest the making ports part of NAPA (North Adriatic Ports Association) and an action pilot centralized on the realization of solutions INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY that allow a efficient exchange of information between the same ports and the operators of intermodal transport. Roberto Ferrazza, in charge of the head office for the Development of the territory, the programming and the international projects of the ministry of Infrastructures and the Transports, has evidenced the importance of the Adriatic-Baltic Sea Corridor, that north-south) of the EU is more the oriental between all the vertical corridors (, in attracting coming flows of traffic from the East, Russia and the Black Sea. The state of advance of the project is represented by Antonio Revedin of the Harbour Authority of Venice, project front man, by Alberto Squarzina in representation of the Harbour Authority of Ravenna and by Ivano Di Santo for the port of Trieste.
