• Major Issues
• No map-matching, no applications
• Still to run VANET and issue of access to
  Navteq-LDM pending
• Localisation is a temporary solution. Safespot
  solution to be tested
• Need the completion of the west-site geometry,
  LDM
• Others
• Still to do the complete integration
• Have not tested our application
• Schedule is overshooting and might run into
  resource allocation issues
• Implementations in Valladolid ?
