On 1 June, the 2016 European Space Solutions event features a 1-day workshop on how the road and traffic management sectors can benefit from European satellite navigation and Earth observation information.
Space and satellite navigation are key enablers for the delivery of the next generation of mobility
– and European Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) offers the precision, robustness and reliability needed for autonomous and connected vehicles, fleet management and payment-related applications.
In fact, navigation is one of the most common ways that GNSS programmes such as Galileo, the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) and Copernicus can be used in smart mobility applications. For example, satellites help provide turn-by-turn information to drivers, cyclists and even pedestrians. They can be used in fleet management on-board units and road traffic monitoring services. GNSS also plays a critical role in providing smart emergency services, with Europe’s eCall system using GNSS to automatically communicate a vehicle’s exact location to emergency services whenever an accident occurs.

Furthermore, the positioning data provided by liability applications are linked to legal and economic liabilities, including Road User Charging (RUC) and insurance telematics. Thanks to its flexibility, satellite navigation has become the preferred solution for electronic tolling, with countries like Germany, Slovakia, Switzerland and Hungary having already successfully implemented GNSS-based tolling schemes.
An array of applications
Many companies and projects are already developing GNSS-based applications to serve the growing demands for smart mobility solutions. For instance, the Horizon 2020-funded Saturn project has demonstrated how the open basis availability of Earth observation (EO) data, combined with public or crowd-sourced GNSS-based transport data, can help urban and regional authorities implement more efficient transportation and urban planning. Also in the public transport domain, Kordis JMK, the operator of public transport in the South Moravian Region of the Czech Republic, uses GNSS surveillance to guarantee passenger connections for those changing between different modes of transport. Other innovative examples come from entrepreneurs like Geoimagine, whose network optimiser solution for fleet management uses mobile sensors to optimise itineraries to drive taxis towards areas with a higher potential number of clients depending on the time of day.
As a relatively new phenomenon, autonomous and connected vehicles are positioning themselves as the way of the future. Major vehicle manufactures are already delivering autonomous cars with such connected driver services as weather reports, and accident and traffic warnings. As the sophistication of these applications increases, GNSS will play a substantial role in providing accurate information for these vehicles. For example, Galileo is set to provide an even stronger service that is more resistant to multipath interference in urban canyons and will provide an authenticated signal capable of detecting spoofing attacks.
With growing cities and increased public transport, it is clear that GNSS services will become more and more important, and applications such as these are looking to secure a share of the massive GNSS global market. According to the latest edition of the GSA GNSS market report, GNSS receivers and services will have an estimated core revenue of EUR 36 billion by 2018, showing that EGNOS and Galileo-related road applications are in demand and will assist in optimising mobility for years to come.
A significant share of this market involves GNSS applications and services addressing issues relating to smart mobility – thus presenting a huge opportunity for European businesses, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and entrepreneurs. To help European industry better understand – and access – this lucrative market, the European Commission and the European GNSS Agency (GSA), under the auspices of the Dutch Council Presidency, are organising a special session on GNSS and smart mobility as part of the European Space Solutions Conference.
The Smart Mobility Focus Session will address a wide range of applications for road and traffic management companies, including liability-critical applications, public transportation, smart cities and the driverless car. The session will highlight both state-of-the-art solutions and innovation, where the latest research and development (R&D) will demonstrate exciting ways in which space applications can influence the next generation of transport systems.
Users from both the public and private domains will be present, including speakers from the European Commission, national transportation agencies, the GSA, and a range of various research institutions and related businesses, including Fiat automaker. The all-day workshop will take place on 1 June 2016 as part of the European Space Solutions Conference in The Hague, The Netherlands. To ensure your business doesn’t miss out on this unique opportunity to get first-hand insights into how space offers real solutions to road and traffic management, secure your place by registering today.

A consortium of Australian motoring clubs serving 2.8 million customers has selected Hexagon Safety & Infrastructure to provide a cloud-based platform for roadside assistance. With the selection of Hexagon’s Intergraph Computer-Aided Dispatch (I/CAD) software, the participating clubs will benefit, for the first time, from shared roadside assistance technologies.
Comprised of Royal Automobile Club of Queensland, Royal Automobile Club of Western Australia and Royal Automobile Association of South Australia, the Australian Club Consortium (ACC) was formed to promote inter-club collaboration and shared IT platforms and services. The consortium’s Common Australian Roadside Assistance System (CARS) program was initiated to deliver a common roadside assistance platform.
Glenn Toms, chairman of the CARS program steering committee and director of ACC, said, “We deliver world class service to our members, and we are broadening our membership proposition by implementing a common technology layer to support future initiatives. The I/CAD solution is built on global technology, and advances in that technology will be made available to us from across the globe. This puts us in a strong position to meet rapidly changing trends and innovation in the automotive industry.”
Roadside assistance services contribute to safer and less congested roads by aiding stranded motorists and clearing blockages and potential hazards. The participating clubs have always worked to deliver efficient and quality service to their members. They want to ensure they keep pace with the rapid advancement of automotive technology, leverage technology innovations and deliver efficiency improvements for their businesses.
The consortium selected Hexagon for the CARS program because of the company’s technical capabilities, industry knowledge and ability to deliver a unified and powerful solution to support the clubs’ current business requirements and future goals. The Hexagon systems will enable the clubs to run multiple operations from a single solution with the flexibility of cloud infrastructure; identify the caller, location and, in most cases, automatically dispatch the closest or most relevant assistance vehicle in the area; and locate members and staff in the field geospatially in real time. The solution also supports the supply of vital spare parts, management of external service providers and expansion through new business offerings.
The specific Hexagon software selected for the CARS features I/CAD, a suite of industry-leading incident management software, including Intergraph Mobile Responder, which extends dispatch capabilities to mobile devices, and EdgeFrontier, a platform that will enable seamless integration to the clubs’ IT systems. The solution also includes software from Surefire Systems, providing for point-of-sale and inventory capability. The consortium will roll out the systems to participating clubs through 2017.
“In selecting Hexagon’s dispatch and mobile systems, the Australian Club Consortium benefits from a common platform to meet the clubs’ needs now and into the future,” said Andrew Munro, senior vice president, Asia Pacific, Hexagon Safety & Infrastructure. "Our interoperable and scalable systems, deployed in the cloud, provide the clubs with a robust and reliable solution to support millions of drivers across Australia.”
Roadside assistance solutions from Hexagon Safety and Infrastructure (formerly known as Intergraph Security, Government & Infrastructure) support some of the world’s largest automobile clubs, including one system that handles nearly 6 million calls per year.
