Abstract
As one of its objectives, the MAPS&ADAS project, a sub-project of the Integrated Project (IP) Preventive Safety (PReVENT) funded by the European Commission, is
aiming to develop, test and validate appropriate methods for gathering and maintaining ADAS content to be integrated into digital maps for in- vehicle safety
application. Starting from the ADAS application requirements, a shortlist of the eight most relevant ADAS attributes to be included into digital maps was established and discussed with representatives from various public authorities in Europe via a Consultation Platform as it is clear that much of these attributes are ‘managed’ by
authorities (*). Subsequently, the leading map makers in the project conducted a pan-European survey to establish an inventory of the availability the ADAS attributes and level of organisation of various (levels of) public authorities in Europe. The technical and organisational aspects for the exchange of above mentioned data between public authorities and map suppliers is presented. The relevant model(s) for such exchange via Public Private Partnership will be addressed in another paper at this conference.
