D5 Annex WP 3: DATABASE METHODOLOGY AND DATABASE USER MANUAL – FREIGHT TRANSPORT DEMAND distribution, loading factor, containerisation rate, etc.). In case this comparison shows large differences, the results will be modified in such a way that they match the data used for the validation. 6.3 Lessons learned and changes compared to the original planned methodology In general the methodology has been applied according to plan. Some minor changes have been made that are listed below. Intermodal transport For intermodal transport not enough information is available to include it in the freight O/D matrix. Because estimation methods are too time consuming to apply it has been decided to leave intermodal transport out of the database. Different method for the accession countries For the accession countries a different method will be applied. Available data from – amongst others – the Intermoda project, NEAC and TENSTAC – will be used for these countries. Once the accession countries have become member of the EU and an update of the ETIS reference database will be made in the future, the same methodology can be applied for the accession countries as it is now applied for the current EU countries. Maritime transport data It appears that more maritime transport data is available than expected at first hand. From national statistics data is collected about maritime import and export flows by unloading/loading port in the country. Besides, Eurostat collects detailed porttoport data. Continuation For the construction of a complete freight O/D matrix that will be part of the ETIS reference database, the tested methods will be applied. 6.4 Output of the testing phase The output of the testing phase consists of a freight O/D transport chain database and a transport database. The transport chain database (origin and destination of the goods) describes trade flows containing the following variables: · Origin region or country (NUTS2 or ETIS country classification) · First transhipment location (NUTS2 classification) · Second transhipment location (NUTS2 classification) · Destination region or country (NUTS2 or ETIS country classification) · Mode at origin · Mode between transhipment locations 64 Document2 27 May 2004
D5 Annex WP 3: DATABASE METHODOLOGY AND DATABASE USER MANUAL – FREIGHT TRANSPORT DEMAND · Mode at destination · NSTR 2 digit commodity classification · Indicator hazardous goods · Indicator conditioned goods · Manifestation of the goods · Value of the goods (in Euro) · Volume of the goods (in tonnes) · Volume of unitised goods (in tonnes) · Number of TEUs · Indicator absolute difference between import and export registration · Indicator relative difference between import and export registration · Indicator for intraEU or extraEU trade The transport database describes transport flows (origin and destination of the transport unit) containing the following variables: · Origin country (ETIS country classification) · Destination country (ETIS country classification) · Transport mode · NSTR 2 digit commodity classification · Indicator hazardous goods · Indicator conditioned goods · Manifestation of the goods · Transport distance · Value of the goods (in Euro) · Volume of the goods (in tonnes) · Tonnekilometres · Number of transport units · Vehicle/vesselkilometres · Volume of unitised goods (in tonnes) · Number of TEUs · TEUkilometres · Indicator absolute difference between import and export registration · Indicator relative difference between import and export registration · Indicator for intraEU or extraEU trade 6.5 Interpretation of the output data for the users As becomes clear from the section above, the results include very detailed data that are partly estimated. The more detailed the (estimated) data, the lower the reliability of the data. On the lowest level of detail, the results are very detailed. Consider for instance trade consisting of three transport legs: from region Madrid in Spain by road to port region Pais Vasco in Spain, then by sea to region ZuidHolland in the Netherlands, and finally by inland waterways to Document2 27 May 2004 65
