Resumen
This paper will focuses on the implementation of National Single Window (NSW) telematic applications allowing the integration of inland and maritime waterway transport with other modes of transport and also with Port Community Management applications. The NSW concept refers to the implementation of a national system that will act as a single point of contact for the electronic submission and exchange (especially) of freight related information between public and private stakeholders from different transport modes. The main objective of the paper is to propose a solution and an implementation roadmap for the correlation and harmonization of the currently isolated and partly un-coordinated initiatives related to SW. NSW should build on existing telematic applications and systems like SafeSeaNet, River Information Services or Intelligent Transport Systems for Road Transport. In this way, the authors propose a possible approach in developing integrated NSW.
