First InterCor TestFest to take place in the Netherlands

The first InterCor TestFest, focusing on ITS G5 services (Wifi-p), is to be held in the Netherlands from 3-7 July on the A16 motorway near Dordrecht in the Netherlands. Co-organised by the InterCor project together with Dutch partners of the C-ITS Corridor, the TestFest will provide roadworks warning (RWW), probe vehicle data (PVD) and in-vehicle signage (IVS) services via fixed roadside units (RSUs) for testing in representative lab environment as well as for testing in real life traffic conditions.

The first InterCor TestFest, focusing on ITS G5 services (Wifi-p), is to be held in the Netherlands from 3-7 July on the A16 motorway near Dordrecht in the Netherlands.

Co-organised by the InterCor project together with Dutch partners of the C-ITS Corridor, the TestFest will provide roadworks warning (RWW), probe vehicle data (PVD) and in-vehicle signage (IVS) services via fixed roadside units (RSUs) for testing in representative lab environment as well as for testing in real life traffic conditions.

Under the European InterCor project, which involves France, the Netherlands, the UK and Belgium, existing cooperative ITS (C-ITS) services are being upgraded and tested for interoperability together with new services. A common set of specifications is to be validated towards interoperability and seamless service continuity, which will be carried out by testing the interoperability of in-vehicle end-user devices and road side ITS stations from the four EU Member States via a set of four interoperability TestFest events.

The InterCor TestFest is open to any organisations active in the field. Interested public authorities, road operators, systems suppliers, services providers, vehicle manufacturers, etc. are invited to register and to actively take part in the TestFest by bringing their own appropriate on-board units and vehicles to test interoperability with the InterCor RSUs in the Netherlands.
