Background: The article provides a discussion on freight transport planning. The existing solutions applied in this sphere have been compared with the environment-related needs. The concept which has been proposed involves a dedicated travel planner that takes some additional non-standard criteria into consideration. At the same time, the authors have highlighted the necessity to expand the algorithms being applied, and to address the comprehensive nature of the problem. However, it is the first and last mile section of supply chains on which the article focuses. The planner described in the paper is being developed as a part of an integrated platform implemented under the international S-mile project. Research methodology: The solutions proposed for transport planning purposes include application of ICT. A review of the available solutions has made it possible to indicate one of the planners currently in use as the foundation upon which a more advanced freight transport planning tool dedicated to the first/last mile section can be built. The planner requires application of several optimisation algorithms, including those which consider route parameters, the selection of fleet vehicles available for the given task, cargo distribution over the vehicle etc. The article defines both primary and secondary criteria that such a planner should take into account, including the environmental ones. What the authors have also highlighted is the possibility to make use of open data sources. The approach they have proposed makes it possible to raise the level of environmental awareness at the first and the last mile management stage, and since multiple transport aspects have been addressed, it also increases planning efficiency.Goals: The purpose of the article has been to discuss an eco-friendly solution which may limit the negative environmental impact of transport.Conclusions: The solution described in the paper may change the manner in which freight transport is managed in cities. Taking environmental criteria into consideration makes it possible to reduce the negative environmental impact of transport. Planning of freight transport requires that far more criteria should be taken into account compared to route planning for the travelling population. A comprehensive fleet management platform featuring a planning module combined with other modules of the S-mileSys system being currently developed is also aimed at integration of large freight companies with the carriers that service first and last miles.
Artykuł obejmuje zagadnienia związane z planowaniem transportu towarów w obszarach miejskich. Przedstawia narzędzia tworzące system SmileSys, ich podstawowe właściwości oraz funkcje które realizują. W pracy zaproponowano dodatkowe kryterium opisu dróg transportowych dla zwiększenia jakości realizowanych usług transportowych. Opisany system jest tworzony w postaci zintegrowanej platformy budowanej w ramach realizacji międzynarodowego projektu badawczego o akronimie „S-mile”.Do opisu jakości dróg transportowych zaproponowano wykorzystanie technologii ICT. Z jej uwzględnieniem opracowano rozwiązanie mobilne przeznaczone dla kierowców wspomagających ich pracę poprzez nawigowanie na trasie oraz organizację pracy zgodnie z harmonogramem wyznaczonym w platformie S-mileSys. Dodatkowo omówiono innowacyjne rozwiązanie oceny jakości dróg transportowych bazujące na analizie przyspieszeń liniowych rejestrowanych z wykorzystaniem urządzeń mobilnych. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie idei stosowania inteligentnych rozwiązań planowania transportu towarów, jak również wdrożenia kryterium opisu jakości dróg transportowych. Zaproponowane w pracy rozwiązanie pozwala w optymalny sposób planować, organizować i zarządzać transportem towarów w obszarze miasta, a zastosowane rozwiązania ICT pozwalają efektywnie realizować prace dyspozytorów oraz kierowców firm transportowych. Tworzone w systemie S-mileSys kryteria optymalizacji umożliwiają planowanie tras uwzględniając aspekty społeczne, środowiskowe, infrastrukturalne, a także wymagania i zależności realizacji usług transportowych w oparciu o pojazdy elektryczne.

The article covers issues related to the transport planning of goods in urban areas. Presents the tools of SmileSys, their basic features, and operating functions. The work proposes an additional criterion for the description of transport routes to increase the quality of transport services. The described system is being developed as an integrated platform built within the framework of the international project under S-mile acronym. ICT technology has been proposed to describe the quality of transport routes. The mobile solution has been developed for supporting work of drivers by navigating at route as well as organizing their work according to timetable determined at the S-mileSys platform. Additionally, an innovative solution for assessing the quality of transport roads based on the analysis of linear accelerations recorded using mobile devices was discussed. The aim of the paper is to present the idea of using smart transport planning solutions as well as to implement the criterion of quality description of transport routes. The solution offered in the project allows to optimally plan, organize and manage the transport of goods in the city area. The applied ICT solutions enable efficient execution of the work of dispatchers and drivers of transport companies. The S-mileSys optimization criteria allow for route planning taking into account the social, environmental, and infrastructural aspects, as well as the requirements and dependencies of transport services based on electrical vehicles.
