DynaMap: A Dynamic Map for road side ITS stations

This paper presents the rationale and design of the DynaMap, a Local Dynamic Map (LDM) for infrastructure-based cooperative applications on Road side and Central ITS Stations. Most LDMs are developed primarily for use in cooperative vehicles. The requirements for infrastructure-based applications are different from vehicle-based applications though. This paper motivates the requirements for road side applications and presents the architecture of the DynaMap.
