Answers to Frequently Asked Questions in Freight Volume Survey (1)
1, what is the freight volume:
The transportation volume includes two indicators: the transportation volume and the turnover volume, which are the physical indicators reflecting the transportation production situation. Volume refers to the number of passengers (goods) actually transported by means of transport in a certain period of time; Turnover refers to the sum of the products of the number of passengers (goods) actually transported by means of transport and the corresponding transportation distance in a certain period of time.
2, what is a trip:
Freight cars transport goods one trip at a time, which is the smallest unit of transportation. It is a concept for vehicles and refers to a complete process from the beginning of loading to the full unloading of goods. To understand whether there are multiple trips in a transportation process, the key is to see whether there are many empty trips, and each empty trip is to complete a trip. The trip does not include empty driving, and loading and unloading goods in the middle is not counted as the completion of the trip.
3, what is the freight turnover:
Cargo turnover refers to the product of the weight of each batch of goods transported and the transportation distance. Like freight volume, it can be a trip, a car or an enterprise’s cargo turnover in a certain period of time. For a trip, if there is no midway loading and unloading, it is equal to the product of freight volume and freight mileage. If there is midway loading and unloading, it refers to the sum of the product of the weight of each batch of goods and the transportation distance. Each batch of goods refers to the goods loaded and unloaded at the same time; For a car, it is the sum of the cargo turnover of all trips of this car; For an enterprise or self-employed, it is the sum of the cargo turnover of all trips booked by all vehicles of this business household.
4, what is the average distance:
The average transportation distance refers to the average transportation distance per ton of goods, which is equal to the turnover of goods divided by the freight volume. For a trip, if there is no midway loading and unloading, the average distance is equal to the cargo mileage, and if there is midway loading and unloading, the average distance is less than the cargo mileage.
5. What is a zero sample?
Zero-sample vehicles include zero-sample vehicles and zero-sample businesses, with whether or not trips have been completed as the defining standard. Zero-sample vehicles refer to vehicles that have not completed trips for various reasons in a certain period of time, and zero-sample businesses refer to businesses that have not completed trips for all vehicles for various reasons in a certain period of time. There are two kinds of zero samples, one is that there is no driving at all, that is, the mileage is zero, the energy consumption is zero, and the transportation volume is zero; The other is the number of trips that have been driven but not completed, that is, the mileage and energy consumption are not zero, and the transportation volume is zero.
6, what is the mileage, cargo mileage:
Mileage refers to the mileage of vehicles in a certain period of time, and refers to the sum of the mileage of all vehicles for business households.
Cargo mileage refers to the distance of transporting goods, which can be a trip or a car. It can also be said that the distance of an enterprise transporting goods in a certain period is equal to the mileage minus the empty mileage.
