GoodsTransport

Factors affecting movement of goods: (according to Ortúzar, 2011)

- location factors (dependency on source materials)

- chain of dependencies

- physical factors of goods (e.g. steel vs. milk)

- operational factors (e.g. company size and internal regulations)

- geographical factors (e.g. population density)

- dynamic factors (e.g. seasonal changes)

- pricing factors (usually not published like with passenger transport)

- weather

- traffic

MultiModalTransport

Change only at specific locations

Change needs time / is timely constrained

Optimizes for multiple criterions

In contrast to MonoModal / InterModal

Not always the fastest route is best (e.g. pirates)

Legal constraints of certain goods

OSMOSM data types:

- nodes (geographical points + attributes)

- ways (list of nodes + attributes)

- relations (list of nodes or ways + attributes)

5,4% source4,3% building

3,1% highway

Especially streets of higher order areof sufficient quality

Existing Systems

gives examples for multimodal freight transport planning

OpenTripPlanner(personal, integrates multiple sources,uses GTFS as storage format, OSM based)

AnachB(personal, designed for specific region)

Route-Planningwith OSM

Building a routable graph is no problem

Many libraries doing routing on OSM exist

- Java: GraphHopper, Brouter, OpenTripPlanner, osmNavigation- C/C++: Gosmore, MoNav, Navit, OpenSourceRoutingMachine, Routino- C#: IMORTIS, OsmSharp, SimpleMapRouting- Scala: osm_routing- Ruby: Mormon- Python: PyrouteLib, SimpleOsmRouter- ClosedSource Solutions...

Additional (real-time)Data with OSM

No real time data in OpenStreetMap

Additional data may be

- too detailed

- updated too often

- be too specific

Missing in OSM

Quality

Frequency

Availability

missing information that cannot be gathered

information that is changing too often

service that is not provided

volume of traffic,storehouse capacity

real-time data on usage

Using OSM

OSM is a useable additional source for multimodal transport planning

OSM can not be the only source for multimodal transport planning

MultiModal Routing with OSM Data is already done

When mixing different datasets, thoughts about legal issues are necessary
