PoDIUM Project

Physical and digital infrastructure (PDI) is key to improving cooperative, connected and automated mobility services. Physical elements of infrastructure include roadside traffic signs, communication network components and vehicles, while digital components involve traffic rules and regulations, as well as input from roadside, vehicle and user sensors. The EU-funded PoDIUM project aims to identify and assess the connectivity and cooperation enablers to achieve higher levels of automation. Use of a multi-connectivity approach and a distributed, interoperable, hybrid data management environment will advance important PDI technologies. PoDIUM.s final outcome will be a reference architecture that can be applied to various road environments and infrastructure equipment. PoDIUM’s outcome will be a reference architecture that integrates advanced modules and infrastructure equipment and that can be applied to various road environments. PoDIUM will run from October 2022 to September 2025 and consists of 26 partners from 9 different EU countries.
