Soluciones de movilidad urbana en Lausanne

Lausanne is the steepest major city in Switzerland — an 18% gradient between the Ouchy lakefront and the Cité quarter above that renders flat-city route optimisation algorithms structurally ineffective. Standard TMS platforms consistently underestimate Lausanne travel times and energy costs because they treat elevation change as irrelevant. 8Move's terrain model uses a 5-metre DEM elevation grid to compute gradient-adjusted travel times and energy consumption per vehicle class, planning electric cargo bike, van, and HGV routes on separate gradient profiles with elevation-aware ETA updates in real time.

Lausanne's M1 and M2 metro lines create 14 level crossings that block van-sized vehicles during 2-minute passage cycles — systematic delays that timetable-unaware routing engines cannot account for. 8Move integrates Transports Lausannois GTFS-RT feeds for both metro lines and surface bus routes, factoring crossing wait times per intersection and re-sequencing routes around tram-blocking junctions during peak periods.

EPFL's 16,000-student campus generates delivery demand spikes on move-in weekends and exam seasons that static planning tools cannot absorb. 8Move pre-maps all EPFL loading docks, integrates the academic calendar for surge pre-allocation, and schedules around exam blackout windows. The IOC headquarters and 50-plus international sports federations add diplomatic freight requirements — credentialed access, embargo-period restrictions, multi-language manifests — that make Lausanne one of Switzerland's most complex cities for fleet management and relocation services operators.
