The aim of the Accident Causation Data WG was to analyse data from existing EU, Member State and industry road accident databases in order to formulate a methodology and framework allowing for a more effective use of accident causation data sources. A better understanding of accident causation can help to evaluate the effectiveness of some on-board safety functions, and the provision of adequate data is necessary to understand the effectiveness of possible countermeasures. The WG helped establish more effective, homogenous European accident causation information.
The Human Machine Interaction WG identified the HMI-related concerns relevant to the introduction of in-vehicle eSafety systems. Its starting point was the European Statement of Principles (ESoP) on human-machine interface for safe and efficient in-vehicle information and communication systems issued in 2000. One of HMI's major concerns was the introduction of nomadic devices in vehicles, whose use greatly increased since the ESoP's release.
The Digital Maps WG defined a business model and proposed a cooperation model between the public and private sector to produce, maintain, certify and distribute eSafety attributes for digital map databases. The WG included key stakeholders from map providers, public authorities, and the European Commission. The requirements for an eSafety digital map database were defined that contained road map data and agreed safety attributes for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems purposes.
The aim of the Heavy Duty Vehicles WG was to review eSafety results and synthesise them regarding the special needs of heavy duty vehicles, including proposed safety approaches, the development of special proposals for heavy vehicles and non-electronic approaches. The WG benefited from the participation of a large number of experts in the field including all major European original equipment manufacturers. Analysing about 50 eSafety systems suitable for heavy-duty vehicles, the WG highlighted the most significant systems in its final report. The main obstacles for further progress in this area are the lack of a positive business case and an accommodating legislative framework.
Vehicle-related services such as eCall, incident warning and floating car data rely on in-vehicle functionality, and are based on specific architectures for installing, starting, stopping, updating and removing vehicle-related services. It is important to have common architectures and interface specifications to help overcome possible market fragmentation. The Service-Oriented Architectures WG will play an important role in this scenario, facilitating cooperation among specialised parties. Its first tasks will be to describe the state-of-the-art, as well as identify the missing elements for deployment and the steps to facilitate market introduction.
The objectives of the eSecurity WG are to investigate eSecurity needs that address the vulnerability of road transport introduced by the misuse of networked and cooperative systems and integrate existing and emerging RTD initiatives. It also aims to provide a communication platform for all major stakeholders in order to support the introduction of eSecurity technologies in parallel to the technical progress and compatible to legal and certification aspects. Derived from a profound threat and attack scenario, qualified recommendations need to be developed regarding the technology requirements (networks, architecture, systems & components and their interaction), which are complemented by advice regarding the legal provisions and standardisation needs for implementation.
The aim of the ICT for Clean and Efficient Mobility WG - that brings together R&D institutes, public authorities, automotive industry, NGOs, transport & environment industries, and integrated traffic management specialists is to identify and promote the potential benefits ITS applications and services can bring towards cleaner and more energy-efficient mobility for people and goods. Much progress towards cleaner and more efficient mobility can already be made by better application and organisation of existing techniques. There are also significant opportunities for synergy and innovation in the areas of ITS for 'eco-management' (of infrastructure and fleets) and 'eco-driving' (improving driver and vehicle behaviour).
The WG will identify current work and state of the art in identified priority areas, and highlight opportunities for innovative ICT applications for cleaner mobility. It plans to assess how to quantify eco-benefits and the impact of ICT in the multi-modal world, analysing different scenarios. It will prepare recommendations for deployment, identifying barriers and then looking at options to overcome them.
