ITS Austria Conference 2014
2014-09-25 06:00 - 2014-09-26 21:59
The registration for the ITS Austria Conference 2014 in cooperation with the Danube Region Strategy, taking place on 25th and 26th of September 2014 at the TechGate Vienna, has opened.
With the title “Bridging Boundaries” international experts will discuss challenges and solutions for ITS deployment with a specific focus on the Danube Region. This event will look at a closer cooperation between stakeholders resulting in a common understanding of next steps towards the creation of a roadmap for cross-boundary deployments in different ITS domains.
In detail, the first day of the conference will deal with national issues, such as the Austrian ITS Action Plan and Catalogue of Measures 2014. After lunch the international part starts with key note speeches by representatives of the European Commission, ITS Austria as well as the Danube Region Strategy. Thereafter, representatives of different platforms and institutions discuss the question of: “Will the implementation of the ITS Directive in the Danube Region work as a boost for service delivery?” resulting in a discussion on how national solutions will contribute to common cross-border services.
The second day focuses on four dedicated workshops with representatives from the Danube Region:

Workshop 1: cross-border Traveller information services for Central Europe (supported by EDITS)
Workshop 2: Implementation of the ITS Directive (supported by the Crocodile project)
Workshop 3: Harmonisation of Electronic Toll Collection (supported by REETS)
Workshop 4: Development of a Road Map for the Danube Region (supported by the Danube Region Strategy)

The registration is now open.

Help design the future Internet of Mobility - Join the MOBiNET workshop and webinar
2014-10-14 07:00 - 10:30
Do you provide, develop or use online services for transport and travel? Then this workshop is important for you and your business!
Connected travel and transport services are typically proprietary and few offer truly Europe-wide coverage or interoperability. Users need significant effort to discover these services; as do service providers and developers willing to expand their business and customer base, which requires a lot of searching and case-by-case negotiations.
MOBiNET provides an e-marketplace to connect different business actors, e.g. transport data suppliers, fleet operators, network managers and service providers, looking to develop or expand their offer in the transport and mobility domain. Sellers and buyers can publish and trade data and services, discover and re-use third-party content to create new services for their customers; contractual (service level agreements, billing & clearing) and legal (liability, privacy, certification) aspects are managed automatically.This will open an ‘Internet of Mobility’ offering a wide range of innovative applications for business users, commuters and travellers, and a gateway to millions of potential customers across Europe for service providers.
The creation of an open marketplace for local or Europe-wide providers calls for the establishment of a suitable legal organisation, with clear rules and common practice among the members, to provide a trusted and stable business environment. Join the MOBiNET Community: be among the first “approved” providers and help set up the rules, agree on the mission and strategic vision of the future operational platform.
The agenda includes a live demonstration of a MOBiNET-enabled Parking Service in North Denmark, followed by a discussion on the business model and organisation of the MOBiNET Community.

MEDUSA final event on E-GNSS for freight transport, road and ITS
2014-10-21 07:30 - 15:30
The Euromed GNSS II/MEDUSA project will launch its final event on E-GNSS for freight transport, road and ITS in Amman on 21 October 2014.
Organized by MEDUSA, under the auspices of the Ministry of Transport of Jordan, the event has a Euromed regional target and it is focused on the use of GNSS/EGNOS for freight and road transport, and particularly on the real experience conducted in the frame of MEDUSA by the Royal Jordanian Customs. Thanks to MEDUSA, with the support of European companies involved in the project and with the aid of the Ministry of Transport of Jordan, since April 2014, the Royal Jordanian Customs are having the opportunity to test and validate the use of EGNOS for tracking and tracing containers shipped across the Mediterranean sea and vehicles transporting goods in Jordan.
During the event, the participants will have the occasion to share the lessons learnt from this Jordan’s “case study”, to be informed about relevant best practices in Europe and in the Euromed region, as well as to debate about strategies and possible ways forward, in the light of national interests and common regional perspectives.
Euromed and European stakeholders, mainly from the satellite navigation sector and from the transport and Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) communities, will participate in the event.
The final agenda of the event can be found here
The participation in the event is free of charge.

Mobility 2050
2014-10-22 22:00 - 2014-10-23 21:59
Is your company or organization on the sidelines? Or is it moving forward?
35 years ago, the personal computer was invented. 27 years ago the mobile phone. Today, we are overwhelmed with new technological developments. Some of these innovations will hold a significant role within our transport methods. Where we will be within 35 years (2050) is hard to predict. Which way we will evolve, is slowly getting clear.
VIM (Flanders Institute for Mobility) organizes the congress ‘Mobility 2050′, on October 23 in Brussels. Be part of a debate with Magda Kopczynska from the European Commission and with Ben Weyts, Flanders’ Minister for Mobility and Public Works. Get inspired by (inter)national key speakers from the United Kingdom, Denmark, the Netherlands and Belgium. Experience the newest innovations. But above all: look forward and join us towards 2050.

eCall #3 TESTFEST event
2014-10-27 07:00 - 2014-10-31 16:00
The 3rd eCall TESTFEST event, organised by ERTICO – ITS Europe and ETSI, will be held from 27 to 31 October 2014 in Vigo, Spain. This event will be hosted by CTAG in cooperation with CETECOM.
At the eCall TESTFEST event last year, more than 30 vendors benefited from more than 300 test sessions to check the interoperability of their IVS or PSAP devices. With eCall now coming closer to the market, verifying the eCall chain and in particular the compliancy to eCall standard requirements through different means of test is critical. This third eCall TESTFEST event is a unique opportunity to check your eCall implementation confidently against other devices and eCall standards requirements.
The eCall TESTFEST event enables vendors to run interoperability test sessions using test descriptions provided in approved guidlines. The event will bring more value with the debriefing sessions where experts can answer technical questions or solve interoperability issues. Additionally, compliancy and performance checking sessions will be schedulded to complement the interoperability tests.
