German specific Feature: Flexibility for tolling Main Roads

Due to the tolling of the motorways, some trucks diverted to free main roads to avoid paying the toll, causing a nuisance to neighbours (safety, pollution, noise)

In order for the trucks to return to the motorways the Bundesrat voted in October 2006 for the tolling of three main roads from January 01, 2007 onwards

It was possible to implement this so quickly only with satellite technology, not requiring any ground infrastructure

German specific Feature: Flexibility and easy evolution together with the network

A motorway network « lives »

New sections will be added or removed regularly

The updates only apply for the cartography and they are done « by the air », without any ground infrastructure
