Sea vessels are basically very ecological even if the transported distance goes into the thousands or tens of thousands of km.

So if you know of any open content sources to get road/railroad/ship/airtravel distances between places it would be most welcome.

== Work that needs to be done re Consumium ==
== Figuring out energy efficiency ==
From '''[[w:Energy efficiency in transport]]''' we can figure out the transportation costs are if we know the [[logistics]] route: Usage of fuel/kg/km transported for all transport types


What we need to find to figure out the transportation costs are:
== Ship tracking ==
Various ship-tracking services exist that get their data feed from  '''[[w:Automatic identification system]]s'''. AIS tracking become mandatory on all ships since 2004 <ref>http://www.vesseltracking.net/article/free-ais-ship-tracking-web-sites</ref> as [[w:International Maritime Organization|IMO]] requires ships over 300 [[w:gross tonnage]] to install an AIS [[w:transponder]] on board. The transponder transmits vessel position, SOG and COG (speed and [[w:Course (navigation)|course]] [[w:Ground speed|over ground]]), ship name, ship size and next [[w:Port#Port_of_call|port of call]].<ref>http://www.marinetraffic.org/marine-traffic</ref>


* Usage of fuel/kg/km transported for all transport types
AIS uses '''[[w:Maritime Mobile Service Identity]]''' codegroups for ship ID
 
The '''[[w:National Marine Electronics Association]]''' (NMEA) is a US-based marine electronics [[w:trade association|trade organization]] setting standards of communication between [[w:marine electronics]].
 
An '''[[w:ENI number]]''' (European Number of Identification or European Vessel Identification Number) is a registration for ships capable of navigating on inland European waters. It is a unique, eight-digit identifier that is attached to a [[w:hull (watercraft)|hull]] for its entire lifetime, independent of the vessel's current [[w:ship naming and launching|name]] or [[w:flag state|flag]].
