SafeMap is a joint German-French project with partners from industry (carmanufacturers, 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 milestone has been defined by the end of the first phase where a first roughestimation of the effectiveness of this digital map was provided, which has been detailed further on in the second phase. The technical approach and main results are described. The project will be finished in May 2007. For the covering abstract see ITRD E139491.
