The information you can provide is a crucial part of our COβ‚‚e calculation models. Our ability to enhance data modeling depends also on your data inputs. To offer you the utmost accuracy in your carbon emissions, our methodology and powerful algorithms include:

  • Terrestrial and Satellite AIS data
  • Extensive base of carriers schedules
  • Vessels technical and operational information
  • Information on traffic separation schemes, piracy areas, and port entries
  • Fuel type analysis, including emission control areas at sea (ECA/SECA)

Factors Models

Leveraging the latest GLEC and ISO standards, this model precisely computes carbon emissions for all transport modes.

Elements considered:

– Shortest feasible distance

– Emission factors per tradelanes

– Cargo characteristics (size, weight, dry or reefer, etc.)

– Fuel types (and fuel switch for emissions control areas at sea)

– Vehicule type (air, road and barge)

– For air, GLEC emission factors based on the length (short, medium, long haul) of the flight and the aircraft type (passenger, cargo or unknown)

Model names:

sfd-direct-emissionsfactors

gdc-direct-emissionsfactors









Vessel and Aircraft models

This solution returns COβ‚‚e emissions between two locations, taking into account the exact characteristics of the requested ship to model its fuel consumption.

Elements considered:

– Shortest feasible distance

– Cargo characteristics

– For sea, fuel consumption model considers the characteristics of the vessel, fuel types, and fuel switch for emissions control areas

– For air, fuel consumption model considers take-off, landing, climbing, descent and cruising phases, and the aircraft characteristics for the allocation of the emissions (EEA/EMEP methodology and EUROCONTROL data)

Model names:

sfd-direct-imo

gdc-direct-icao








Historical model

Powered by historical AIS data, this model rebuilds vessel itineraries and calculates COβ‚‚e emissions for past shipments at vessel, carrier, or industry levels. Missing shipment details? No problem. We combine your data with ours to estimate likely routes and vessels, delivering precise COβ‚‚ insights.

Elements considered:

– Actual distances

– Port calls operated at a specific date for each vessel

– Connecting vessels

– Cargo characteristics

– The fuel consumption model considers the vessel's engine characteristics, fuel types, fuel switching in emissions control areas, and vessel characteristics for emissions allocation

Model name:

actual-portcall-ais







Schedules model

Built to empower shippers with data-driven carrier choices, this model calculates carrier-operated itineraries, including alliance services. For each itinerary, we compute COβ‚‚e emissions of the vessels in service, providing comprehensive emission statistics..

Elements considered:

– Network distances

– Cargo characteristics

– Connecting vessels

– Cargo characteristics

– The fuel consumption model considers the vessel fleet on each service, vessel's engine characteristics, fuel types, fuel switching in emissions control areas, and vessel characteristics for emissions allocation

Model name:

network-portcalls-schedules
