by Luca Scolfaro | Feb 9, 2018

ORGANISATION

Name of the Organisation: Higher Institute on Territorial Systems for Innovation

Organisation Short Name: SiTI

Organisation Type: OTH

Country: Italy

ACTIVITY

Topic(s) of interest from 2018-2019 Transport Work Programme:
  • LC-MG-1-9-2019: Upgrading transport infrastructure in order to monitor noise and emissions
  • LC-MG-1-10-2019: Logistics solutions that deal with requirements of the ‘on demand economy’ and for shared-connected and low-emission logistics operations
  • MG-4-4-2018-2019: Support for dissemination events in the field of Transport Research
  • MG-4-6-2019: Supporting Joint Actions on sustainable urban accessibility and connectivity
  • LC-GV-05-2019: InCo flagship on “Urban mobility and sustainable electrification in large urban areas in developing and emerging economies”

Fields of Activity: SiTI- Higher Institute on Territorial Systems for Innovation, is a no profit association set up in 2002 between the Politecnico di Torino and the Compagnia di San Paolo, to carry out research and training oriented towards innovation and socio-economic growth. Its activities are concentrated in the following sectors: Logistics and transport, Environmental heritage and urban redevelopment, Environmental protection. Since its foundation in 2002, SiTI carried out several projects and researches in the fields of transport planning oriented towards urban and land sustainable development, sustainable urban mobility and planning, land use management, territorial and economic development, environmental protection and it gained a relevant experience in working with Italian local, regional and national public administration and private stakeholders and with relevant European and international organizations. The “Logistics and Transport” Research Unit has an extensive expertise in Transport Planning, focused on urban and land Sustainable Development. Development of simulation models and system analysis are the main activities carried out by this Research Unit, to study the transport systems at different territorial levels and to provide plans, strategies and actions aimed at easing people’s mobility and rationalising freight transport, meeting society’s environmental, social and economic needs, whilst minimizing transport undesirable impacts.

Skills and Experise Offered: Mathematical Modelling applied to Passenger Mobility and Freight Transportation:
- Development and application of mobility models for future scenarios evaluation
- Traffic modelling and freight transport modelling
- Discrete choice models;
- Optimisation models for freight transportation on multi-modal networks
- Elaboration and application of models for the estimation of air and noise Pollution

Transport Planning:
- Urban Sustainable Mobility Planning
- Public Transport reorganisation studies
- Urban Planning and Territorial Development
- Accessibility Analysis
- Monitoring and Mobility Analysis
- Mobility Management

Project Assessment Methodologies and Tools:
- Development and application of qualitative & quantitative methods and tools, to assess the Transport System Impacts
- Development of Interactive Visualisation and Decision support tools

Keywords: Transport, Logistics, Transport planning, quantitative analysis, simulation scenarios, urban mobility, regional economics, monitoring, visualization tool
