In this article, a project concerning the three-dimensional modelling of the new port of Patras city (Greece) in SIMIO software platform will be presented. SIMIO software is a simulation prototype program with superior 3D graphics, achieving true design of each simulated system, and leading also to a real-time simulation mode through its modern object-oriented technology. Based on the architectural designs of the port made in AutoCAD environment, granted by the competent authorities of the port, the exterior form of the new port of Patras city has been designed in three-dimensional formation. Also, a simulation model of the movement of ships, vehicles and human activities has been developed. Programming in SIMIO does not require any advanced knowledge of a programming language but it is achieved through creating flowcharts, mathematical functions, empirical rules and defining the properties of each intelligent object being imported. The purpose of the 3D simulation of the new port of Patras is the possibility offered to search more efficient operations, to study changes before implementing them and generally to try various operation scenarios.
