Sinopse
We developed this project as part of the Urban Mobility Data Hackathon, focusing on characterizing the demand and supply in urban logistics in downtown Lisbon, with an emphasis on congestion, pollution, and sustainability.
Our approach involved collecting data, optimizing current scenarios, and creating future strategies, including improvements in the use of pedestrian streets and logistic parking zones.
Two scalable models were developed: one for analyzing logistics needs and another for evaluating congestion and environmental impact, allowing for the inclusion of additional layers of information.
These models have the potential to support municipalities, planning authorities, and consulting firms in sustainable urban management.

Filipe Machado has a degree in Mechanical Engineering by the Lisbon Technical University (Instituto Superior Técnico) and is an active entrepreneur in sustainability and micro/mini-mobility with a background in urban logistics, transport networks and food & beverage. In 2023, he co-founded bOOmE as a startup focused on developing and producing advanced mobility solutions, later evolving to also include sustainable urban mobility/logistics studies and consulting with a focus on a positive net contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals using ESG tools and frameworks. At present, he accumulates his role as Chief Engineering and Marketing Officer ate bOOmE with being Vice-President for Sustainability and Communication at APVE – Portuguese Association for Electric Vehicles. Helder Soares holds a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Instituto Superior Técnico and has built a multidisciplinary career that spans several domains, including research and development, laboratory management, technical training, certification processes, as well as technical and commercial engagement with industrial equipment. Over the years, he has also been involved in diverse project development initiatives. In 2023, he co-founded bOOmE, a startup dedicated to the creation and implementation of advanced mobility solutions. His core interests lie at the intersection of mechanics, electronics, programming, and integrated project design, reflecting his strong interdisciplinary approach and innovative mindset. Miguel Campino received the M.Sc Degree in Mechanical Engineering (2021) from Instituto Superior de Engenharia de Lisboa. He is currently enrolled in the LARSyS PhD Programme focus on Mechanical Engineering. In his master thesis, developed in the area of transportation, Miguel focused on the propulsion management of a plug-in hybrid vehicle, developing a metric capable of bridge the gap between the test cycles under real conditions of use though forecasting methods. As a PhD student, Miguel is working to assess the real impacts of using light -duty vehicles with one or more propulsion sources at multiple levels.
