Customer: INTERREG III B (2000-2006) CADSES

Duration: October 2002 – June 2005

The prime aim of the GILDANET project focuses on the evolution, extension and consolidation of the GILDA / TRANSLOGNET systems, prototypes developed under the INTERREG IIC Programme as a widely accessible IT support solution for the information and document exchanges among authorities and operators of the intermodal transport. The aim will be articulated on three main axes of goals:
1) to progressively create a self-sustainable (marketable) system, intended as an open platform of integrated and differentiated services in a transnational dimension, able to stimulate and satisfy the various user categories needs for improvements in the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the intermodal transport chain management;
2) to bring the system in line with the most relevant technological and business standards and codifications, thus increasing its openness and interoperabilty;
3) to integrate new tools and functionalities to provide a wider range of IT support all along the intermodal, transnational transport and logistics chains, improving the added values for private operators, for institutional agencies, as well as for the public policy aiming at the promotion and facilitation of integrated and sustainable transport.
GILDANET will introduce an integrated and open information network between the partners of the transport chain and other relevant parties. Emphasis will be put on the real time electronic transactions, Tracking and Tracing of cargo and vehicle, information dissemination, Decision Support Systems, interfacing with the end users, interconnected/interoperable ICT systems at a transnational level and adoption of advanced communication protocols.
GILDANET will involve about half of all countries within the CADSES region, maintaining a representative balance of EU- and accession countries.
