T1 - Securing of dangerous goods transports by RFID-tags with sensor-functionality and integrated database "GEFAHRGUT" information (SIGRID) N2 - The project SIGRID investigates and assesses possibilities to enhance the safety and security of dangerous goods transports through the use of the latest RFID-technology. This technology can be used to greatly enhance the transparency of the supply chain and aid logistics companies in complying with regulations. In the context of SIGRID, customized RFID-Sensor-Tags have been developed that monitor dangerous goods during transport and help to prevent hazards by allowing timely countermeasures. In the case of a dangerous goods accident, the available information about the type, amount and condition of the dangerous goods can be used to accurately inform the relief forces. Unavailable or inaccurate information represents a significant problem for the relief forces. This often leads to a delay in the rescue operation, because relief forces must be aware of the substances involved to protect themselves effectively against them. SIGRID aims to close this information gap. To verify the practicability of the underlying concepts, a demonstrator will be build and tests of realistic scenarios will be conducted.
