GeoNet Project

The number of GeoNetworking implementations is growing steadily

GeoNet info — Tue, 23 Aug 2011 08:39:53 +0000

There are currently 9 independent organisations who are developing their own implementation of ETSI standard compliant GeoNetworking protocol. The overview section of the main page shows them on the map.

This steady increase in the number of GeoNetworking protocol implementations means the ongoing industrial uptake of the GeoNet project results. Thereby the expected project impact has been realised in its follow-up phase.

Two presentations have been delivered at the 2011 IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference (May 16-18), relating to GeoNet results and its follow-up.

Uptake of GeoNet in ITS standardisation and the relevance for electric vehicles: Integration between Full Electric Vehicles, the Internet, and the Smart Power Grid

Integrated implementation and field trial of GeoNet results: Real-vehicle integration of driver support application on IPv6 GeoNetworking

ETSI Publishes European Standard for ITS Communications Architecture

GeoNet info — Sun, 03 Oct 2010 14:18:16 +0000

A major ITS standardization milestone has been achieved with the recent ETSI publication of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS); Communications Architecture.

The GeoNetworking and IPv6 over GeoNetworking protocol layers are networking base protocols in this standardized ITS architecture. GeoNet project is specifically mentioned in the standard as related research activity to the development of this architecture.

Two presentations have been delivered at the ICT 2010 conference explaining GeoNet results and its follow-up.

Uptake of GeoNet in ITS standardisation and field trials: IPv6 GeoNetworking in ITS Standardization
The IPv6 over GeoNetworking concept and its implementation in GeoNet: The GeoNet project: Combination of IPv6 & GeoNetworking

The GeoNet specifications have been incorporated into ETSI ITS standards

GeoNet info — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 04:46:08 +0000

The GeoNet partners are happy to announce that the specifications produced by the GeoNet project have been incorporated into ETSI ITS standards.

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.

GeoNet successfully concluded by Final Workshop

GeoNet info — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 07:51:53 +0000

GeoNet concluded its activity with its Final Workshop that took place 29 January 2010 in INRIA’s premises in Paris, France. IPv6 GeoNetworking was presented together with its link with the related ITS development in CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium, CVIS implementation and ETSI TC ITS standardization. Moreover the functionalities of IPv6 GeoNetworking was shown in a real system including 3 cars, 2 road-side units and a control center. A (very simple) enhanced driver awareness application was demonstrated and numerous attendees could enjoy a ride to see the achievement.

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.

GeoNet releases public deliverables

GeoNet info — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 17:06:55 +0000

GeoNet Final Workshop takes place January 29, 2010 in Paris, France. So that attendees can take full advantage of this workshop, GeoNet released most of the public deliverables for this event.

Final GeoNet architecture release

GeoNet info — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 16:03:21 +0000

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”.

Final GeoNet specification release

GeoNet info — Wed, 20 Jan 2010 16:00:43 +0000

The GeoNet project aims at providing a standard solution for IPv6 geonetworking to all Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), relying on the IPv6 standard and on Car-to-Car Communication Consortium’s (C2C-CC) geonetworking. 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 D2.2 deliverable “Final GeoNet Specification” describes the specification, improved since the 1st release of GeoNet specifications (D2.1) by feedback from standardization organizations and from implementation phase.

GeoNet Final Workshop at January 29, 2010 in Paris, France! – click image to download leaflet

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.
