The document discusses implementing an intermodal terminal and logistics operations system at the Astakos Port in Greece. The system would integrate state-of-the-art technology like RFID to track containers and monitor operations in real time. It would manage various facilities like the container terminal, ro-ro terminal, and container freight station. The implementation would provide intuitive, simple and multi-purpose logistics management while addressing current infrastructural, operational, and organizational barriers at terminals.
3. Introduction Infrastructural Barriers at Terminals Insufficient capacity Lack of space for storage and parking facilities Unsuitable rail infrastructure Insufficient rail and road access Limited flexibility of infrastructure Tidal impact of sea side terminal access Operational Barriers at Terminals Too long waiting times Ineffective information flow Poor real-time monitoring of operations Communication problems/inefficiencies Inefficient internal administrative processes
4. Introduction Operational Barriers at Terminals (cont) Insufficient security management Missing or insufficient management of incoming traffic Organizational Barriers at Terminals Missing cooperation between terminal operators and other parties Unsuitable form of terminal organization Low level of information integration among port community Economical Barriers at Terminals High Terminal investment costs High Terminal operation costs Missing added value services at terminals

Editor's Notes
Passage Type - The categorized purpose for anyone crossing the entry points of free zone inward or outward
Some of these points will be destination areas for loaded means of transport with cargo. Furthermore its possible in each terminal point to have assigned specific system users for security reasons and for easy system login procedure. (When the user log into the system he should enter the terminal point on which he was been assigned for work. If the user is already linked into a specific terminal point then this terminal point will be selected automatic by the system.)
