SMART-WAYA FP7 GNSS Success Story in LBSLet your Smartphone guide you through the transport jungle

WORKSHOP: European GNSS Applications in H2020FP7 results and future funding opportunities in H2020

RESEARCH FOR A MOBILE FUTURE

Praha, 04th February 2014

Participation of eight European organizations from five EC member states (Three of them from Germany)

Developed within 24 month in an EC- funded research project

Budget of ~ 2.4 million EurosAddressing medium to large cities with complex

transport networksPilotings in Dresden, Germany and Turin, Italy,

implemented in practice in 2012

SMART-WAY–an awarded European navigation

Sounds familiar?

Where I have to go?

Which kind of transport I‘m able to

use?

When I have to leave?

Where I have to change?

Will I arrive in time?

When I have to leave?

Where is the next stop?

Where am I?

Bus? Train? Tram? Metro?

START: Praha hlavní nádraží

DESTINATION: Praha Technická

Praha, 04th February 2014

Start

DestinationSpontaneous access

Disturbance on the route

Alternative route

Get off at POI Imaginebeing in a foreign city, getting on the first tram or bus on your way, and being guided to your destination through the public transport network – by your own Smartphone!

Idea

Praha, 04th February 2014

Suitable for mobile platform Android Interface for

text messages maps

GPS, WAAS, EGNOS, (Galileo)… Real time data Motion Detection

Improves the monitoring of the navigation process by detecting typical motion patterns

WalkingSitting / StandingSpeedup / Slowdown of vehicles

Technical Facts

Praha, 04th February 2014

How does it work?

User finds an adequate route by entering a starting point or using current location

Navigation process starts, important points (interchanges, exit stops) are signalized by vibration

Unrestricted freedom of the user to interrupt the trip, new route is calculated

Up-to-date information of delays, early arrivals and disturbances

Advantages

Travelers Free choice of mode of

transportation Spontaneous access to vehicles Never get lost Lowering barriers to use public

transport modes Continuously and increasing app-

usage after roll out Positive feedback and interaction

by piloting users

Transport authorities Address car drivers and shift

modal shift towards pt Higher satisfaction of travelers

and lowering barriers to use pt Independent of global players

(google), individually adaptable to every pt-operator

Awarded as GHTC 2012

The award ceremony on 5 March in Delhi, India, where Dr. Matthias J. Hack, German Federal Ministry of Education and Research handed over the award

Successes so far

Praha, 04th February 2014

Continuously and increasing app- usage after roll out Technology shortly before break- through to Europe Positive feedback and inter- action by piloting users

Successes so far

Prospects

Praha, 04th February 2014

Fraunhofer IVI and TAF are interested to continue the lighthouse-project successfully with attention to establish an european uniform LBS-solution for pt-operators (including long-distance traffic)

collaboration with the Czech Ministry of Transport and other countries/authorities to implement

SMART-Way in large urban networks e.g. in Czech Complete integration of Indoor- and WIFI-Location, iBEACON Smart-Way is open for integration into existing applications

Prospects

Praha, 04th February 2014

Next intended activities Operation in Germany International activities Integration of e-ticketing Integration in existing navigation) application and bridging to other transportmodes Expand Smart-Way to iOS platform Implementation in European wide dimension within the easy.GO App

Praha, 04th February 2014

Next intended activities: way to intermodality

Car navigation app, which is used in directory services, such as Yellow – and White Pages

Available on all major platforms (iOS, Android BlackBerry, etc.)

maps available for Germany, Austria, Swiss , Western Europe

Customized adjustments possible API third-party applications

integration via API
