SETO & KEYSTONE: working towards smart and resilient transport operations

Abstract KEYSTONE and SETO are two EU‐funded Horizon Europe projects running from June 2023 to May 2026. KEYSTONE aims to create an ecosystem for seamless, interoperable, and intermodal transport and logistics by integrating and standardising data sharing across systems. Its five main goals include developing tailored digital solutions, validating a web app through two pilots, creating a replicable European transport ecosystem, defining API standards for secure and efficient data exchange, and enhancing mobility safety while reducing costs and emissions. The project seeks to drive environmental, societal, economic, and industrial benefits, fostering innovation, reducing emissions, enhancing transparency, and creating business opportunities to improve quality of life and competitiveness. SETO seeks to provide an innovative digital solution that allows authorities and operators to access all relevant information required for enforcing transport and safety legislation in real‐time and with a one‐click‐away solution. The platform will be validated in two multimodal Living Labs, with special focus on the enforcement of overloading of road vehicles. In that context, SETO is developing innovative technologies for direct enforcement using WIM systems and the detection of lifted axles. SETO not only covers the technological aspects of WIM systems, but it is also committed to providing metrological recommendations and guidelines.
