INSPIRE as a driver for up-to-date ITS digital maps in Europe – benefit assessment

The Transportation Pilot for the Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) community is a collaborative initiative involving the European Commission-Joint Research Centre from its European Union Location Framework (EULF) project, ERTICO’s Transport Network ITS Spatial Data Deployment Platform (TN-ITS), including national road authorities and commercial map providers, and the European Location Framework (ELF) project, including national mapping agencies. Its aim is to promote the use of INSPIRE (European Directive setting the Infrastructure for Spatial Information in Europe) within the transport domain, by focusing on the electronic exchange of data among public road authorities and private sector ITS map providers, at a cross-border level, based on authoritative and seamless data compliant with INSPIRE. This paper describes an approach to assess the benefits of the pilot's activities for the partners involved in the first phase, including National Road Authorities from Norway and Sweden, and commercial map providers, TomTom and Nokia/HERE.
