ADDITIONAL DEFINITIONS, EXPLANATIONS AND DATA REPORTING GUIDELINES FOR IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EC) No 1365/2006

SECTION I.   INLAND WATERWAYS TRANSPORT

1.   Navigable inland waterways

This term covers navigable rivers, lakes, canals and estuaries. An inland waterway forming a common border between two countries has to be reported by both.

2.   Inland waterways transport

For the purpose of this Regulation the movements of goods and/or passengers using seagoing vessels undertaken wholly in navigable inland waterways will be considered as inland waterways transport and will be subject to the same data provision obligations no matter if seagoing vessels are not specifically mentioned in other definitions.

Movements of goods shipped to offshore installations are excluded. Bunkers and stores supplied to vessels in port are excluded, but bunker oil shipped to vessels offshore is included.

3.   National inland waterways transport

National inland waterways transport may involve transit through a second country, although for this country this transport has to be reported as transit. Cabotage transport defined as national inland waterways transport performed by a vessel registered in another country is included.

4.   International inland waterways transport

International inland waterways transport may involve transit through one or more third countries. For the latter countries this transport has to be reported as transit.

5.   Transit inland waterways transport

Transit inland waterways transport shall be considered as such only provided that in the total journey within the national territory there is no transshipment.

6.   Country/region of loading

This is the country or region of the port (NUTS2 level (1)) where the transported goods are loaded on a vessel.

7.   Country/region of unloading

This is the country or region of the port (NUTS2 level) where the transported goods are unloaded from a vessel.

8.   Type of packaging of goods

Goods on a vessel can be transported using two types of packaging:

—	inside containers as defined in section III.1,

—	not in containers.

SECTION II.   TYPES OF VESSELS

1.   Self-propelled barge

Any powered inland waterways freight vessel, other than self-propelled tanker barges.

2.   Barge not self-propelled

Any unpowered inland waterways freight vessel, other than not self-propelled tanker barges. This category includes towed, pushed and pushed-towed barges.

3.   Self-propelled tanker barge

A self-propelled barge intended for the transport of liquids or gases in fixed tanks.

4.   Tanker barge not self-propelled

A barge not self-propelled intended for the transport of liquids or gases in fixed tanks.

5.   Other goods carrying vessel

Any other known or unknown kind of inland waterways freight vessel intended for carrying goods not defined in the previous categories.

6.   Seagoing vessel

A vessel other than those which navigate predominantly in navigable inland waterways or in waters within, or closely adjacent to, sheltered waters or areas where port regulations apply.

SECTION III.   CONTAINERS

1.   Container

A freight container means an article of transport equipment:

1.	of a permanent nature and accordingly strong enough to be suitable for repeated use;

2.	specially designed to facilitate the carriage of goods by one or more modes of transport, without intermediate reloading;

3.	fitted with devices permitting its ready handling, particularly its transfer from one mode of transport to another;

4.	so designed as to be easy to fill and empty;

5.	having a length of 20 feet or more.

2.   Size of containers

For the purpose of this Regulation the size of containers will be reported according to four categories:

1.	20 Foot ISO containers (length of 20 feet and width of 8 feet);

2.	40 Foot ISO containers (length of 40 feet and width of 8 feet);

3.	ISO containers over 20 feet and under 40 feet in length;

4.	ISO containers over 40 feet long.

(Containers smaller than 20 feet or of unknown size must be reported under Category 1).

3.   Loading status of containers

Containers may have two loading status regardless of their size:

—	loaded, when any kind of good is transported inside the container,

—	empty, when the container does not have any good inside.

SECTION IV.   INLAND WATERWAYS TRAFFIC

1.   Number of movements of loaded vessels

One movement of a loaded vessel is counted as the movement of a vessel from the port of loading of any kind of goods to the following port of loading or unloading.

2.   Number of movements of empty vessels

One movement of an empty vessel is counted as the movement of a vessel from one port to another for which the gross-gross weight of goods is nil. The movement of a vessel carrying empty containers is not considered as an empty vessel.

SECTION V.   UNITS

1.   Tonne

Unit for measuring the weight of goods transport equivalent to 1 000 kilograms.

The weight to be taken into consideration is the gross-gross weight of goods. The weight taken into consideration is equivalent to the total weight of the goods and packaging and the tare weight of equipment such as containers, swap bodies and pallets. When this tare-weight is excluded, the weight is gross weight.

2.   Tonne-km

Unit for measuring the goods transport equivalent to one tonne of goods transported over a distance of one kilometre.

For the purpose of reporting the tonne-km performance only the distance travelled on navigable inland waterways has to be taken into account.

3.   TEU

Unit for measuring the container size equivalent to twenty feet unit. For the purpose of this Regulation the following equivalences apply:

1.	=	20 Foot ISO containers (length of 20 feet and width of 8 feet)	=	1 TEU;
2.	=	40 Foot ISO container (length of 40 feet and width of 8 feet)	=	2 TEU;
3.	=	ISO containers over 20 feet and under 40 feet in length	=	1,5 TEU;
4.	=	ISO containers over 40 feet long	=	2,25 TEU.

4.   TEU-km

Unit for measuring the goods transport by containers equivalent to one TEU transported over a distance of one kilometre.

For the purpose of reporting the TEU-km performance only the distance travelled on navigable inland waterways has to be taken into account.

5.   Vessel-km

Unit for measuring the vessel traffic equivalent to the movement of a vessel over a distance of one kilometre. For the purpose of reporting the vessel-km performance only the distance travelled on navigable inland waterways has to be taken into account.

Two fields are marked in the column associated to the relevant table:

—	‘X’: fields that have to be provided for a table,

—	‘’ (space): fields not relevant for the table (should not be provided).

The format of each field is either numeric (n) or alphabetic (a) or alphanumeric (an). The size is either fixed (‘format + number’ — e.g.: ‘n4’) or variable with a maximum number of positions (‘format’ + ‘...’+ maximum number of positions — e.g.: ‘n..12’).

Description of transmission medium

The transmission format to be used has to be compatible with an automatic transmission of data (EDI approach).

The ‘CSV’ (comma separated values) format with semicolon (;) as field separator is acceptable. Another more advanced format based on an appropriate interchange standard could also be specified by Eurostat. Eurostat would then make available detailed documentation on how to implement this standard according to the requirements of this Regulation.

Data shall be transmitted or uploaded by electronic means to the single entry point for data at Eurostat.

One separate file by table of the Regulation and period has to be sent.

The following file naming convention is required:

‘IWW_Table_Frequency_Country_Year_Period[_OptionalField].format’ where:

IWW	For Inland Waterways data
Table	‘A1’, ‘B1’, ‘B2’, ‘C1’, ‘D1’, ‘D2’ or ‘E1’
Frequency	‘A’ for Annual ‘Q’ for Quarterly
Country	Reporting country: use NUTS0
Year	Year of the data on 4 positions (e.g. 2007)
Period	‘0000’ for Annual ‘0001’ for the first quarter Q01 ‘0002’ for the second quarter Q02 ‘0003’ for the third quarter Q03 ‘0004’ for the fourth quarter Q04
[_OptionalField]	Can contain any chain of 1 to 220 characters (only ‘A’ to ‘Z’, ‘0’ to ‘9’ or ‘_’ are allowed). This field is not interpreted by Eurostat tools.
.format	File format: ( e.g. ‘CSV’ for comma separated value, ‘GES’ for GESMES)

Example:

The file ‘IWW_D1_Q_FR_2007_0002.csv’ is the data file that contains for France, data of table D1 of the Regulation, for the year 2007, second quarter.
