Green Sustainable Airport (GSA), an Interreg IVB project that is part of the North Sea Region Program, is an initiative of Groningen Airport Eelde (GAE). One of the goals of the GSA project is: The development and testing of sustainable and innovative applications that contribute to a more sustainable exploitation and increased accessibility of all partner airports. Currently a lot of research in the field of autonomous vehicles is carried out globally. In this research, named the “Flying Carpet”, the feasibility of using autonomous vehicles for passenger transfer between a future P+R facility at Glimmen and Groningen Airport Eelde is examined.Feasibility is researched on a technical, juridical and economic level. Implementing the proposed connection seems juridically feasible. -The juridical feasibility cannot be guaranteed, because it is a new situation whereby involved parties need to present a definitive answer, which at this stage is not possible. -Realizing the proposed concept has been indicated by the involved companies to be technically feasible, given that additional (existing) technologies will still need to be implemented. From a financial point of view, implementing an AGV connection is not recommendable. -The investment costs per transported passenger will be high, mainly because the transfer demand throughout a given day only has a few, if not just one, peak during arrival or departure of a flight. Therefore, choosing the AGV connection option should not be based on a financial point of view, but instead on gaining non-tangible assets in favour of GSA and GAE.

In dit document worden de mogelijkheden voor het hernieuwd in gebruik nemen van de spoorlijn tussen Assen en Stadskanaal onderzocht. Hierbij wordt voortgebouwd op het project Flying Carpet waarbij een mogelijke verbinding door middel van autonome voertuigen voor vliegveld Eelde is onderzocht. De volgende aspecten zijn onderzocht: -De route van de voormalige spoorlijn, het aantal kruisingen en de geschiktheid voor autonome voertuigen -De route, frequentie en exploitatiekosten van de huidige openbaar vervoer (OV) verbindingen waarvoor autonome voertuigen een alternatief kunnen bieden -Een grove schatting van de infrastructuurkosten

Writing expressive dialogues can be used to assist individuals in developing their career identities – that is: stories that are needed to help people position themselves in relation to the current labour market. Writing expressive dialogues entails having written conversations with various parts of us – much like a playwright does with his characters – and making developmental gains in the process. In Dialogical Self Theory (DST) terms, it means talking to and with various I-positions on the page, perhaps forming coalitions, discovering counter positions, and innovating and integrating the self (Hermans & Hermans-Konopka, 2010, p. 228-234). And as the playwright Miller suggests in the above quote, the creation of identity is an interactive process between self and others.

We need mental and physical reference points. We need physical reference points such as signposts to show us which way to go, for example to the airport or the hospital, and we need reference points to show us where we are. Why? If you don’t know where you are, it’s quite a difficult job to find your way, thus landmarks and “lieux de memoire” play an important role in our lives.

In ESSENCE (European Sustainable Solutions for Existing and New City Environments) "five European Higher Education Institutions and three municipalities worked together to train future professionals to overcome the complex challenges of achieving smart sustainable cities. Students worked on behalf of the three local governments on useful solutions to sustainability issues in the urban environment. New teaching methods were applied, such as blended learning and creative solution searching methods. "
