Objective
The TRANS-TOOLS model which is currently developed will become the reference transport policy assessment tool for the EU. It completes the ETIS reference database which is used for its calibration. ETIS has been developed in close cooperation with EUROSTAT to provide the Commssion with a policy oriented information system. Although the scope of ETIS and subsequently TRANS-TOOLS is EU25, there is some lack of recent information on the new members (EU27) and on the new neighbours, as well as detailed country or group of countries information recording trade with the Rest of the world.
Intermodal transport outside the EU is an innovative issue, as well the information on air (freight) transport. As such the forecasting capabilities and scenario developments of TRANS-TOOLS can be significantly improved or used in parallel and cooperation with the task devoted to the 'Integration of energy, technological and/or environmental components'.
