Three main workshops were planned (beginning in Fall 2000 until Fall 2001) and a Final Conference:   

Workshops:

  • DCode: Establishment of as standard mandatory or voluntary quality control procedure for modelling works (celebrated in Brussels, October 2000)
  • MDir: Establishment of an harmonised description for transport models (celebrated in Brussels, December 2000)
  • GTF: Establishment of common transport format for data exchange between advanced transport models (Barcelona, October 2001)
Final Conference
  • Integrated presentation of DCode, MDir and GTF, together with LTVisions: Problems and opportunities of using advanced software technologies to make modes more friendly and interactive to end-users (Brussels, February 2002)
Preparatory documents  

In order to help the discussions, spotlightsTN partners and Scientific Committee members have developed a number of draft proposals and prototypes to be used as starting points for the discussions:

  • DCode: A voluntary "Scientific Pedigree" approach based on the SPQR approach
  • MDir: Interactive directory of European freight and passenger models described according to an harmonized structure
  • GTF: Proposal of an specific data model
  • LTVisions: Search of interesting experiences (interactive and friendly models though Internet) as benchmarks, and development of complementary prototypes
