| Περίληψη: | The objectives of the Thesis are to analyse, explain, visualise and deliver insights on the passenger transport system of the Aegean Archipelagos. The strong points of this system, its weaknesses, the competition and complementarity of the maritime modes and aviation, are discussed. An advanced transport simulation model is developed for the specific area as a highly efficient tool for policy assessment with emphasis on the role of the insular transport hubs.
The particularities of the transport system of the Aegean Archipelagos add contribution and innovation qualities in the methodologies used in the research of the current Thesis for the following three areas: Data, Model and Policy. Innovation in the Data area includes big data exploitation from mobile phone records to identify mobility patterns in the archipelagos. Furthermore, an innovative stated preference survey questionary was designed and used on path choice for internal trips. Contribution in the Model area concerns the use of advanced public transport simulation modelling techniques adjusted accordingly for long-distance trips to the islands. In place of the conventional mode choice and assignment to the transport network modelling steps, a multimodal path choice modelling approach is introduced to simulate intermodal trip chains. Discrete choice modelling is applied for the willingness to use port hubs as interchange points in the insular area producing VOT estimations of the trip components with a distinction between in-vessel ride time and transfer wait time at specific ports. In the area of Policy, concepts from public transport planning are introduced focusing on network integration with a system of insular hubs strategically located in the archipelagos. The complementarity of the routes and the modes are justified and promoted to bring the network effect. |
