About Transportation and Modes of Transport
GoConqr OriginalWhat the page covers
This unit sits in the Transportation strand of Logistics and supply chain. Most of it is mind maps, with flashcard decks, quizzes, flowcharts, notes and a slide set alongside. Together they walk through the main modes: road, rail, sea, air and pipelines.
Where to start
Begin with the mind map Transport modes. It sets out air, sea, road, rail and pipelines, with advantages and disadvantages for each. The flowchart Modes of transport and the flashcard deck Logistics - Modes of transport cover the same ground in other forms.
Next, pick a mode and go deeper:
- Railroads: the deck Railroad ABCD asks multiple-choice questions, such as what share of intercity ton miles railroads carried in 2006. Railroad short questions asks you to define intramodal and name the top commodities carried.
- Water and pipelines: Water and Pipelines ABCD asks which commodities suit water transport.
- Motor carriers: there are several Motor Carriers maps, plus the deck Trucking Industry Terms & Equipment.
- Air: the map Chp 7 Airlines.
Concepts and management
Three maps on concept and term definition cover payload, carrying capacity and load factor, the ratio used to measure how well capacity is used. Several Transportation Management maps and the deck chapter 10 look at buying transport and why it matters to supply chain managers. Transportation: costing & pricing and the notes on transport operation costs suit those studying the money side.
Practical material
The deck Packagings covers transport packaging, Euro pallets and load securing. The notes Sea Freight to India and Other Countries and TNT Pick Up Conditions show procedures in practice.
Using quizzes and maps together
Read a map first, then test yourself. Quizzes such as Transportation, Freight orders and bookings and Creation of Transportation Requirements show what you still need to review. Go back to the matching map for those gaps.
Choose one mode today, try a quiz on it, and see how much you recall.
Frequently asked questions
Where should I start on this page?
Start with the mind map Transport modes, which sets out air, sea, road, rail and pipelines with their advantages and disadvantages. Then open the flowchart Modes of transport or the deck Logistics - Modes of transport for a second view of the same material before moving on to one mode in detail.
Which resources cover railroads?
The decks Railroad ABCD and Railroad short questions test railroad knowledge, from intercity ton miles to defining intramodal. The mind maps called Railroads and THE RAILROAD INDUSTRY give an overview, so you can read first and then quiz yourself.
Are there quizzes to check what I know?
Yes. There are more than 10 quizzes, including Transportation, Freight orders and bookings, Creation of Transportation Requirements and Settle Transportation Charges and Distribute Costs. Try one after reading a mind map, then revisit the topics you missed.
Who are these resources for?
Most suit university students and professional candidates studying logistics and supply chain, and teachers can use them as ready-made material. A small share is lighter and may help school students meeting the topic. The resources were made by GoConqr users.
Are the resources free?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes if you want to build on what you find.
What if I can't find the topic I need?
Browse the mind maps on Transportation Management, Motor Carriers or Water Carriers and Pipelines, which cover several angles. If a topic is still missing, you can make your own notes or flashcards from what you find here.
