Bavaria acts as a test site in the EU-funded project Road Safety ATTribute exchange in Europe (ROSATTE), which aims to develop an infrastructure for road safety attribute data interchange from public authorities to map providers and others. The Bavarian data pool INTREST (INTermodal REferencingSystem for Traffic related data) provides the road network for linear referencing for the additional road data. To comply with the specified formats and interfaces for ROSATTE, existing INTREST software systems are extended and improved. Furthermore the administrative process of implementing a new traffic regulation (e.g. a speed limit) will include the use of the newly developed INTREST regulation tool in selected model regions. This web-based editor allows referencing of point and linear features on the INTREST road network as well as the maintenance of specific attributes used for administrative and ROSATTE purposes. Beyond the on-demand maintenance of such attributes, an initial supply must be executed to give the acting authorities a certain initial level of information. There are various sources for this supply in to the database. In four model regions of the Bavarian test site the initial supply will be done within the ROSATTE project.
