InDiD

InDiD stands for Infrastructure Digitale de Demain (Digital Infrastructure of Tomorrow) The project ran from July 2019 to June 2024.

InDiD is one of the French projects selected by the European Commission as part of a call for projects under the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF). The project received 50% co-funding from the European Union. It follows on from the SCOOP@F Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems, C-ROADS France and InterCor projects, extending the geographical coverage of the services deployed in these projects and developing new advanced services.

The project aimed to extend the coverage of use cases deployed in previous projects (emergency braking, accidents, roadworks, etc.) and to develop new use cases covering the urban environment, as well as use cases involving augmented perception for autonomous vehicles. It also covered high-definition digital mapping of infrastructure. Together, connectivity and mapping form the digital infrastructure of tomorrow, an essential complement to the physical infrastructure.

InDiD therefore did not limit itself to the technologies used in previous projects (ITS G5 and 4G), but also studied the contributions of new technologies (LTE-V2X, 5G) and their potential for hybridisation with existing technologies. Above all, InDiD worked on developing the C-ITS services that the automated vehicle will need.
