DORA – DOOR TO DOOR INFORMATION FOR AIRPORTS AND AIRLINES
O objetivo principal de DORA é o desenho e desenvolvimento de um sistema de informação integrado que ajude os passageiros a otimizar seu tempo de viajem, desde a origem do mesmo avião no aeroporto de chegada até seu destino final, é dizer, porta a porta. O sistema DORA proporcionará recomendações de viajem dinâmicas, sem fissuras e otimizadas para o traslado ao aeroporto, incluindo as melhores rotas para desembarque através dos terminais aeroportuários, até chegar aos controles de segurança e as portas de embarque adequadas. DORA integrará informação em tempo real sobre incidentes, atrasos, e interrupções tanto no âmbito do transporte terrestre como nos terminais do aeroporto, para proporcionar as alternativas de rota mais rápidas, garantindo a acessibilidade de acordo com as preferencias individuais de cada passageiro. O projeto DORA também investigará e desenvolverá tecnologias para a detecção do tempo de espera em filas e serviços de navegação indoor, que se integrarão no sistema DORA e serão testados durante o projeto.

ABSTRACT:
DORA project is aiming at design and establishment of an integrated information system that helps passengers to optimise travel time from an origin of the travel to the airplane at the departing airport as well as from the arrival airport to the final destination. With it, the DORA integrated information system, which will be created within the project together with necessary software platforms and end user applications, is aiming at reduction of overall time needed for a typical European air travel including necessary time needed for transport to and from the airports.
(To ensure this, the DORA system will provide mobile, seamless, and time optimised route recommendations for the travels to the airport and time optimised routing within the airports, leading the passengers through terminals to the right security and departure gates. The DORA will integrate all necessary real time information on disruptions in the land transport environments and on incidents in the airport terminals to provide the fastest route alternatives, ensuring the accessibility of airport and airplane at any time in accordance with individual passengers’ requirements. The DORA system will be designed in a generic way, to ensure that it can be widely adopted independently on passengers and airports locations.
In the project, the DORA system will be implemented and tested in realistic environments involving cities of Berlin and Palma de Mallorca as well corresponding airports in both cities with involvement of at least 500 real end users – passengers – in the trials. To support the passengers’ route optimisation, the DORA project will investigate and design technologies for recognition of waiting queues and indoor location services in airports, which will be integrated into the DORA system and tested within the project trials.
