Pilot testing of certification methods developed for ITS applications based on GNSS systems

Project of applied research called “Analysis of technical and metrological requirements for GNSS receiving devices and their operations” is a part of a Metrology development program funded by Czech Office for Standards, Metrology and Testing. The project started in 2008 and its second part executed in 2009 was focused on preparation of certification procedures for first ITS applications and pilot testing of the procedures. The virtual gate passage detection (used in the systems such as EFC) was chosen as one of the tested applications. Results will be used as a benchmark for later testing and certification. Goal of the project is certification authority establishment to provide verification of defined parameters achievement in ITS critical systems which increases transport effectiveness and quality.
