WP02 Operational Procedures, Functional Requirements and Freight System Architecture

The process flow for European seamless rail freight and a future automated full digital freight train operation with all relationships must be described within its physical (such as locomotive/wagon and its subsystems) and a digital (data) layer as a foundation for the specification of the requirements of the technical enablers for a digital-rail-based logistic systems. Target operational processes for all areas in all relevant scenarios (situations/sites/locations) shall be defined.

WP24 Preparation of demonstration and standardisation for seamless freight

The goal of WP24 is to prepare the activities for the demonstration efforts of WP 33 and WP 34. This is done via a continuous alignment of planning, timing execution and evaluation between all involved partners. Since this is a continuous and regularly updated process, the WP will run for the entirety of the first call. In addition, this WP also aims to provide input for standardisation, including a possible extension of the existing standards.

WP25 Seamless Use Case Definitions/Preparations, Functional and Basic Technical Specifications

To match the market requirements, the goal of this WP is to establish the functional and technical specifications of the necessary developments to achieve the vision of the seamless freight cluster of Destination 5. The actual development is done in WP 26-32, or in the respective work packages of the Destination 1 project, which is focussed on mainline network planning and management, as well as the FP3 project regarding the development of CBM.
