Work Programme 2012 (1) Fields of activities covered by the Transport theme Commercial transport of goods and passengers in all modes where this activity is significant: road freight, rail (goods and passengers), inland waterways (goods), sea (goods and passengers), air (passengers, freight and mail), and pipelines (specific goods) Measurement of traffic, in particular for road vehicles Infrastructures and means of transport (vehicles) at national and regional level Enterprises and employment in the transport sector at national level Accidents, fatalities, injured people and release of dangerous goods in the transport sector Intermodal transport, congestion, logistics performance Impact on the environment, in particular on climate change Transport indicators (modal split; structural, sustainable development, globalisation, environment)
2. Developments of the European Maritime Transport Statistics recent and planned
Recent developments of the European Maritime Transport Statistics 1. New legal act for maritime transport statistics adopted in February 2012: Simplification of data for vessel movements in ports (only inwards movements recorded) Modified type of cargo classification (split of shipborne rail wagons, port-to-port trailers and barges into three separate codes) New voluntary collection of number of containers on Ro-Ro units 2. This is the last element of reform package following task force on maritime transport statistics 2006-2009. Previously adopted (2010): Transmission of some data sets changed from quarterly to annual (vessel movements and passenger transport) Nationality of registration of vessel made optional for passenger transport Data on type of goods (NST 2007) made mandatory starting from 2011
Planned developments (short and long term) Key developments and user needs: 1. Improved quality, timeliness an data access: Improved production routines Flash estimates Access of port-to-port data to researchers 2. Extended data collection (for intermodal statistics): Modal split of cargo entering and leaving ports Split of feedering and real short sea shipping in ports 3. Maritime transport volumes by distance classes TKM and PKM for maritime transport on routes over/under 300 km 4. Statistical cooperation with owners of administrative data (EMSA) Vessel movements and vessel characteristics Maritime accident statistics Hazardous cargo statistics? Emissions from maritime transport 5. Integrate use of data from administrative sources under development (e- Maritime) To be discussed at coming meeting of the Working Group on 13-14 June
3. Production and dissemination a brief overview
Data sources Data is collected and published for: 22 EU countries (5 landlocked countries are excluded) One EEA country (Norway). Iceland stopped sending data in 2007. Two candidate countries (Croatia and Turkey) The data is collected, verified and transmitted by the National Competent Authorities (NCAs) in the reporting countries National statistical institutes National port authorities Transport minstries Various data sources are used for compiling the statistics in variuos countries IMO declarations Port data Shipping agents NSI questionnaires to captains, maritime authorities etc Port administration systems or national databases Other registers (such as Lloyd s)
