SCUTUM SeCUring the EU GNSS adoption in the dangerous Material transport Workshop ASI Settimo Programma Quadro Galileo
2 SCUTUM project overview EGNOS service for the tracking & tracing of dangerous goods Call: 2 call 7 FP EC Transport (including Aeronautics) EGNOS/Galileo Area: Use of EGNOS services for professional applications Total cost ~ 2, 24 ME; EC funding ~ 1,4 M 24 months Project team: 11 members, coordinated by Telespazio 4 EU countries Covering the value chain of EGNOS/Galileo applications Representatives from user community, Authorities, Standardization bodies
3 Why SCUTUM Convergence of: 1. Need of exploiting EGNOS benefits in the road sector (EC/ GSA) 2. Extending in Europe the Italian best practice (eni + MIT) 3. Searching for products/business models based on EGNOS (TPZ) SCUTUM answers: 1. The transport of dangerous goods by road 2. Cross border implementation in neighbouring countries (France and Austria) 3. Proven solution into large scale operation & standardization
4 Why EGNOS for dangerous goods transports Outcomes from various R&D projects and demonstrations: EGNOS for land applications: combination of EGNOS OS (i.e. from SiS) and EGNOS CS (distributed via EDAS) Target: professional/regulated markets in road and freight transport Priority: tracking & tracing services for dangerous goods transport EGNOS benefits for dangerous goods transport: EGNOS OS Better accuracy EGNOS CS/EDAS Higher confidence/guarantee on position Enhanced availability Adding value to GPS now, and preparation to Galileo State of play of EGNOS use for dangerous goods transport Needs and interest of end users and institutions GPS+EGNOS OS adopted in nation operational best cases (eni + MIT)
5 SCUTUM EGNOS European best practice Upgrading of the eni operational system to EGNOS CS/EDAS by means of the Telespazio EGNOS CS/EDAS pre commercial solution named Turning large scale demonstration in EU into operation Involving commercial users and authorities in 3 EU countries (Italy, France and Austria) to: Validate EGNOS benefits for road applications Elaborate a common model for EGNOS adoption Launching a EU wide technical standardization for EGNOS CS/EDAS based services
6 CEN Workshop Agreement CWA 16390:2012 EU technical specification http://www.cen.eu/cen/sectors/sectors/isss/pages/scutum.aspx Endorsed by EU stakeholders from industries, institutions and research sector Enabling the development of products and applications based on the EGNOS CS/EDAS Compliant with the guidelines of the UNECE/OTIF WG on telematics for dangerous goods Applicable to Intelligent Transport Systems and mobility applications Validated by MEDDTL, MIT, eni and ERF
7 SCUTUM implementation (1/3) 2009: eni and MIT validated EGNOS and considered EGNOS OS and CS added value interesting for operational use 2010: eni started a step wise adoption for the remote monitoring of tankers transporting dangerous goods in Italy 2011: About 300 eni tankers in Europe (Italy, France, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Czech Republic) are monitored with GPS + EGNOS OS and EGNOS CS & LCS On going: The plan is to extend to eni vehicles in Germany and in Switzerland and to the transport of aviation material
8 SCUTUM implementation (2/3) eni benefits from services for risk management, safety and commercial purposes GPS + EGNOS OS + EGNOS CS & Accurate latitude & longitude HPL
9 SCUTUM implementation (3/3) Two OBUs typologies: Baseline and Slim
10 SCUTUM achievements Adoption of EGNOS in an operational business case Market readiness of a product based on EGNOS ( ) Large consensus and applicability for the standardization Cross border cooperation initiated (between Italy, France and Austria as a first step, contacts with other countries already established) Cross fertilization with EU initiatives on going (e.g. UNECE/OTIF WG on telematics for dangerous goods, ecall, HGV)
11 SCUTUM lessons learnt Role of policies Alignment with EU policies (e.g. ITS Directive, EC Action Plan on GNSS Applications) as a key driver Role of institutions To support the implementation of best practices and enablers Role of users To dictate technology development and validate benefits Role of technology User driven solution To exploit EGNOS added value in sustainable business case

13 EGNOS Open Service (OS) EGNOS OS added value wrt GPS alone enhanced GPS position accuracy by approx. 3 metres free to users from the satellites open signal static tests conducted by eni GPS GPS + EGNOS
14 EGNOS Commercial Service (CS) EGNOS CS added value controlled access, distributed by EDAS via terrestrial networks enabling to augment the performances of the EGNOS OS through EGNOS CS/EDAS based solutions (e.g. )
15 LCS Uses EGNOS CS/EDAS Retrofits existing GPS tracking & tracing systems Consists of several software modules, connecting to EDAS to get EGNOS data and implementing a Telespazio proprietary navigation solution Processes raw data from GPS/EGNOS receivers (mass market automotive) Provides EGNOS CS/EDAS based services : Improves the availability of the EGNOS OS Enhances GPS position accuracy by approx. 4 metres Processes the EGNOS integrity into the protection level, providing the qualification/ confidence in the position information
