FOT-Net organised Second International Workshop
The Workshop was held in Stockholm on 21 September 2009 (before the Opening Ceremony of the ITS World Congress)
About International Workshops FOT-Net is a support action funded by the European Commission to network Field Operational Test activities at European, national and international level. The FOT-Net members already met in New York for their first international workshop, to identify working items addressing common experiences and problems relevant for the international FOT community. These international meetings gather representatives of the public and private sectors directly or indirectly involved in the results of the FOT activities at international level.
In order to report on the latest progress about international cooperation for Field Operational Test activities and foster further cooperation with North America and Japan, FOT-Net had planned a Second International FOT Workshop.
When? On Monday morning, 21 September 2009, before the Opening Ceremony of the ITS World Congress Where? At the ITS World Congress in Stockholmsmässan, Sweden What? Topics of discussion included:
- Methodologies: Commonalities and differences across the regions
