At the beginning of this year, OLTIS Group with its partners kicked off three new research and innovation projects. Two of those projects are co-funded under the sub-programme INTER-EUREKA.
The goal of the project TIARA, where OLTIS Group is involved in cooperation with Tatravagónka Poprad under the leadership of the company LEVEL from Nachod, is to equip railway vehicles with telematic and sensory functions and thus lay the foundation for a complex solution for tracking of operational parameters of railway vehicles.
In the project DIGIMON, OLTIS Group is going to work with the Warsaw University of Technology on digitalisation of multimodal logistic centres. The aim here is to improve the existing flow of information within terminals as well as in the whole multimodal logistic chain by implementing new IT technologies, therefore promoting the development of interoperability of transport services and also promoting shifting transport from road to other modes of transport at the same time, to rail especially.
The third new project is project AISTAR. OLTIS Group with the Faculty of Transport Engineering of the University of Pardubice in a consortium led by CD Cargo, succeeded in the first public call of the Doprava 2030 (Transport 2030) programme under the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic. This project is focused on the use of artificial intelligence in rail freight traffic control, specifically in the processes involved in short term planning and operational management of planned capacities, customer priorities, capacities of local sites, and available infrastructure capacity.
