Freight Distribution and Logistics Center --> Intermodal Terminal:
vessel estimated time of arrival

Definitions

vessel estimated time of arrival (Information Flow): The estimated date and time that a vessel is expected to arrive at its destination port. This information may originate from vessel systems, carrier operational systems, or voyage scheduling systems and is used to support berth planning, terminal preparation, and port operational coordination.

Freight Distribution and Logistics Center (Source Physical Object): The 'Freight Distribution and Logistics Center' provides intermodal logistics support and support for the efficient distribution of freight across transport systems and modes. This can include consolidation arrangements, warehousing, information sharing systems, and consignor-to-consignee intermodal shipping arrangements. These capabilities may be provided as part of intermodal fleet management activities or can be provided by an independent logistics specialist.

These systems may also include centralized platforms that coordinate vessel operations, cargo documentation, ground transport reservations, and operational information exchange among vessels, terminals, cargo owners, transport operators, and other port stakeholders to support efficient and coordinated port and intermodal freight operations.

Intermodal Terminal (Destination Physical Object): The 'Intermodal Terminal' represents the terminal areas corresponding to modal change points. This includes interfaces between roadway freight transportation and air, rail, and/or water shipping modes. The basic unit of cargo handled by the Intermodal Terminal physical object is the container; less-than-container load handling is typically handled at a different facility (i.e., Freight Consolidation Station). The Intermodal Terminal can include electronic gate control for entrance and exit from the facility, automated guidance of vehicles within the facility, alerting appropriate parties of container arrivals and departures, and inventory and location of temporarily stored containers.
