SafeMAP is a joint German-French project with partners from industry (car manufacturers, map providers) and governmental research institutes which was launched within the DEUFRAKO initiative in January 2004. The main objective of the SafeMAP project is to assess the socio-economic feasibility of a dedicated digital map data base comprising safety related data. To reach this objective, the project has been organised in two main phases. A first milestone has been defined by the end of the first phase where a first rough estimation of the effectiveness of this digital map is provided, which will then be detailed in the second phase. In this paper the technical approach and preliminary results are described. For the covering abstract see ITRD E134653.
