dc.description.abstractThis paper proposes a model to delimit the hinterlands for South America's main ports, considering Euclidean distances and the actual routes existing in the region. The differences between these two methods were analyzed and the impact of the main costs variables was quantified on the port hinterland. This is a new approach to hinterland modelling, since it considers the actual routes used to transport goods in the region. We assume that port selection is mainly based on the objective of minimizing the total cost of intermodal freight transport. The proposed methodology can be used to determine the ports captive hinterlands and analyze which variables affect the size and the shape of these hinterlands. We apply the methodology to six ports in South America and four destinations. Results show that the differences between the hinterlands modelled by the two methods are considerable, reaching 280 billion dollars in GDP captured for some ports. © ILS 2018 - Information Systems, Logistics and Supply Chain, Proceedings.
