New solutions for traffic information exchange

Exchange of traffic information across borders and nations is one of the cornerstones to achieve high quality road traffic management, safety and user services. The paper takes an architectural approach covering the principles and building blocks of a concept for exchange of traffic and travel information. It is based on DATEX and also includes the new DATEX II concept, for data exchange with cross border traffic information centres, service providers and other parties active in the area of use of traffic information and supply of road user services. A fundamental idea is to provide the necessary means to open up authority databases and make them accessible to all these actors. DATEX is funded by and is an initiative of the European Commission. The paper also describes experiences from an implementation at the Swedish Road Administration (SRA). For the covering abstract see ITRD E140665.
