Electronic Fee Collection - Value added services based on EFC on-board equipment

1.1 Definition of VAS
Value Added Services, VAS, is a term that was coined in the telecommunications industry for services that go
beyond core service, such as mobile voice communications. Such additional services are intended to add
value for the consumers in order to encourage them to use the telecommunications service more often and to
add an additional revenue stream for the Service Provider.
In the context of EFC, a VAS in this strict sense is a telematics service offered to the Service User by means
of an EFC OBE. This service might directly be consumed by the driver in the vehicle, or might, particularly in
the case of heavy vehicles, be targeted at the freight operator and be consumed in a back office. Such
services can be fleet management services like track-and-trace, payment services such as paying petrol
automatically at the pump, or regulatory applications such as Electronic Licence Plate or access control. Such
additional services and applications create additional value to the user, either by the value the new service
creates to him, or in the case of regulatory services, by combining several functionalities in a single device,
thus removing the need to install and maintain several pieces of equipment simultaneously.
In a wider sense, the operator of the EFC service can draw additional benefit from the data collected by the
EFC system. Data from EFC OBE gives a good account of the traffic situation on the charged network, and
may be utilised for statistical purposes, for traffic planning or even in real-time for traffic information purposes.
The scope of this TR covers both the original meaning of VAS, namely both additional services to the user of
the core EFC service and additional value created for the operator of the charging system.
1.2 Coverage
The TR analyses all telematics applications that have the potential to be delivered as a VAS to EFC. The
analysis covers the requirements of the VAS applications and the fit to the resources offered by the EFC
system. It also analyses prerequisites in terms of business and technical system architecture in order to
enable VAS to be delivered, including questions of control and governance, security aspects and privacy
issues.
The TR does not analyse commercial viability. Cost to benefit ratio and market potential for VAS are
considered to be out of scope.
The TR analyses the potential and pre-conditions for EFC equipment to serve as platforms for a diverse range
of VAS. The VAS are considered to be add-ons to EFC equipment. The TR does not analyse the reverse
situation, namely the situation where an EFC application is added to a telematics platform that has been
deployed for another core service, such as the suitability of navigation systems to serve as platforms for EFC.

Elektronsko pobiranje pristojbin - Storitve z dodano vrednostjo, izvajane z opremo EFC na vozilu

Storitve z dodano vrednostjo VAS je izraz, ki ga uporablja telekomunikacijska industrija za storitve, ki presegajo osnovne storitve, kot so mobilne glasovne komunikacije. Take dodatne storitve uporabnikom pomenijo dodano vrednost in jih spodbujajo k pogostejši uporabi telekomunikacijskih storitev, kar izvajalcu storitve prinese dodaten dohodek.
V kontekstu elektronskega pobiranja pristojbin VAS v ožjem smislu pomeni telematično storitev, ki jo uporabnik storitve lahko dobi z opremo EFC na vozilu. To storitev lahko neposredno uporabi voznik vozila, lahko pa je, še zlasti pri tovornjakih, namenjena upravljavcu tovora in se izvaja v pisarni. Take storitve so lahko storitve upravljanja voznega parka, kot so sledenje, plačilne storitve, na primer avtomatsko plačevanje goriva na črpalkah ali regulativne aplikacije, kot sta elektronska registrska tablica ali nadzor dostopa. Take dodatne storitve in aplikacije ustvarjajo dodano vrednost za uporabnika bodisi z vrednostjo, ki jo zanj pomeni nova storitev, ali pri regulativnih storitvah s kombiniranjem različnih funkcij v eni napravi, kar pomeni, da ni več treba nameščati in vzdrževati več kosov opreme hkrati. V širšem smislu lahko upravljavec storitve EFC iz podatkov, ki jih zbere sistem EFC, pridobi dodatne ugodnosti. Podatki iz opreme EFC na vozilu omogočajo pregled nad prometno situacijo v omrežju, kjer se zaračunavajo pristojbine, in se lahko uporabijo za statistične namene, za načrtovanje prometa ali celo v realnem času za obveščanje o prometu. Obseg uporabe tega tehničnega poročila zajema izvorni pomen VAS, torej dodatne storitve za uporabnika glavnih storitev EFC, in dodatno vrednost, ki nastane za upravljavca sistema pristojbin.

Introduction
This Technical Report (TR) analyses the technical feasibility of using EFC OBE for delivering additional
services, commonly called value added services (VAS). These VAS may either be delivered on board to the
driver of the vehicle, or off board to the road operator, to a freight company or to the general public. The report
only analyses the situation where EFC is considered to be the core application, with VAS applications as add-
ons, not the reverse situation, namely whether an EFC application can be added to telematics platforms with
other core applications, such as EFC that might be delivered as an add-on to a navigation device.
Currently, the interaction between services based on EFC OBE without any additional equipment and comfort
service platforms is not clearly visible. Therefore, the scope of this TR includes investigation of the suitability
of the available sensor information, data elements, communication media and HMI features for supporting the
envisaged mass services such as; fleet management, hazardous goods / livestock management and eCall.
This relates to the expectations mentioned in the interoperability directive, Directive 2004/52/EC. It is expected
that with the advent of the European Electronic Tolling Service EETS as mandated by Directive 2004/52/EC,
VAS will benefit from widespread deployment of capable multi-technology telematics platforms. Commercial
transport might achieve efficiency improvements and competitive advantages through a wider take-up of fleet
management and related applications that might be offered as VAS to EFC equipment.
The TR identifies potential applications and groups them into application classes for the purpose of a more
compact analysis. The application classes are
 Fleet management;
 Entertainment;
 Payment;
 Cooperative road safety;
 Driver assistance;
 Communications;
 Navigation & traffic information;
 Traffic data collection;
 Vehicle usage recording;
 Regulatory applications.
The methodology in this TR is firstly to compile the specific requirements of the applications in each class,
then to establish the requirements of EFC applications, and finally to analyse potential synergies and
prerequisites for joint delivery. The analysis strives to encompass two viewpoints, namely the business and
the technical perspectives.
The TR also analyses how these services can be implemented without jeopardising the security requirements
of the EFC Service Provider responsible for the OBE and the charging process. The possibilities and
constraints, including privacy requirements as defined in Directive 2006/24/EC and Commission Decision
2008/597/EC, related to the integration of the OBE into a wider open platform for delivery of other public or
private added value services form part of the investigation, as well as the required standards and anticipated
road map.
The analysis results in a set of recommendations as to how the preconditions for a joint delivery of VAS with
EFC might be improved. The analysis in the report shows that certain preconditions required for VAS are not
available in current EFC standards and might need to be taken into account for future work.
