The third eCall testfest event, organised by 374 Ertico-ITS Europe and ETSI, will be held from 27 to 31 October 2014 in Vigo, Spain, hosted by CTAG in cooperation with CETECOM.

More than 30 vendors benefited from more than 300 test sessions to check the interoperability of their IVS or PSAP devices at the last test fest. With eCall now coming closer to the market, verifying the eCall chain and in particular compliance with eCall standard requirements through different tests is critical. This third eCall testfest event is a unique opportunity to check eCall implementation against other devices and eCall standards requirements.

The eCall testfest event enables vendors to run interoperability test sessions using test descriptions provided in approved guidelines. The event will bring more value with the debriefing sessions where experts can answer technical questions or solve interoperability issues. Additionally, compliancy and performance checking sessions will be scheduled to complement the interoperability tests.

There’s an old story about the person who asked an Irishman for directions and after much thought he responded: “If you’re going there from here it would be better to start from somewhere else.” This came to mind when I was recently reflecting on eCall and wondering when it will come - some stakeholders say the answer is never. So despite years of workshops and discussions, eCall is still not
