Summary
Smart City Logistics is a decision support platform for urban logistics for European cities. It provides decision makers with a wide range of easy-to-understand information to support the development of urban freight transportation plans.
Addressing urban logistics requires an integrated understanding of transport, environmental and socio-economic aspects to arrive at sustainable solutions. The Smart City Logistics platform maps users’ information on transportation networks, access restrictions, traffic measures, delivery and transport facilities, administrative units, population, land use and emission situations.
Smart City Logistics allows users to assess trends and relationships from different perspectives and identify innovative and strong sustainable solutions.
Good Example
The platform has been used in the www.lamiloproject.eu project where a few cities have been using the information in the Smart City Logistics Platform to plan more sustainable trips and visualise City Logistics related information.
