The GeoNetworking protocol layer is being defined by the ETSI TS 102 636-4-1 standard, titled ‘Geographical Addressing and Forwarding for 
Point-to-Point and Point-to-Multipoint Communications; 
Sub-part 1: Media-Independent Functionality’. The IPv6-over-GeoNetworking adaptation layer is being defined by the ETSI TS 102 636-6-1 standard, titled ‘Internet Integration; Sub-part 1: Transmission of IPv6 Packets over GeoNetworking Protocols’.

The GeoNet specification of IPv6 mobility mechanism for ITS is expected to be adopted in a future ETSI ITS standard.

Upon the publication of these standards, ITS technology providers are advised to follow these ETSI standards as baseline for system implementation and testing. As follow-up of the GeoNet project work, GeoNet partners are adapting their system implementations and test environment to be fully aligned with ETSI ITS standards.

The FP7-funded European project GeoNet designed, implemented, tested and pushed for standardization an IPv6 GeoNetworking architecture related to many other major initiatives like CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium and CVIS.

The D1.2 deliverable “Final GeoNet Architecture” describes the architecture, improved since the 1st release of GeoNet architecture (D1.1) by feedback from standardization organizations and from implementation phase. It is complementary to D2.2 “Final GeoNet Specification”.

The GeoNet consortium invites you to attend its final workshop as a unique opportunity to learn more about IPv6 geonetworking and the link between IPv6 geonetworking and the related ITS development in CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium, CVIS implementation and ETSI TC ITS standardization. During the workshop you will get information through communications and posters and also see the system working in real cars.

Since the GeoNet Consortium is by no mean a standardization body, it has been decided to elaborate a detailed, reference specification that would then be pushed to standardization bodies (IETF, ETSI, ISO) by individual GeoNet members, many of them being active in these bodies.

The D2.1 deliverable “Specifications – 1st release” is describing the 1st release of GeoNet specifications. It is the basis for GeoNet implementation, and will be subsequently revised based on the feedback from implementation phase.

IPv6 is already taking momentum in the automobile sector as could it be witnessed by the CVIS and GeoNet European projects and standardization activities by ISO TC204 WG16 (CALM architecture), ETSI, and the Car-to-Car Communication Consortium (C2C-CC).

Following the European Commission’s IPv6 action plan issued in May 2008, the objective of the session is to discuss how IPv6 know-how could be best developed in Europe.

The session will gather speakers from:
- The GeoNet project
- The CVIS project
- C2C-CC
- ETSI
- European Commission

While the CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium has invested significant effort into the specification of a car-to-car communications mechanism suitable for safety applications, its mandate does not extend beyond defining a specification. At the same time, ongoing projects like SafeSpot would need an actual implementation to rely on whereas other such as CVIS are developing a communication architecture relying on the maintenance of a constant access to the Internet over IPv6.

GeoNet shall bring the basic results from the work of the CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium to the next step, by further improving these specifications and creating a baseline software implementation interfacing with IPv6. The goal of GeoNet is thus to implement and formally test a networking mechanism as a standalone software module which can be incorporated into Cooperative Systems. This implementation shall enable transparent IP connectivity between a vehicle and the infrastructure, even in cases when delivery must be hopped over several vehicles or cached along the way. GeoNet not only benefits from previous work within these projects, but also will provide a support for the integration of its solution. This collaboration is sketched in support letters.

Once GeoNet fulfils the existing implementation gap of geo-addressed networking, ongoing and future projects for Cooperative Systems can maintain their focus on architecture design, application development and field trials.
