ee--Toll CollectionToll CollectionProject "Electronic Fee Collection for Free-Flowing Traffic"

a working prototype solution that works on all highways in Slovenia

the results proved that with the satellite based EFC system governments may introduce a fair toll collection system based on the actual number of kilometers/miles driven

the system is applicable for all European countries and all vehicle types

ConclusionConclusionLaboratory for telecommunicatios (Slovenia) can act as ICT innovation platform

critical mass of knowledge in the field of ICTgeostrategic location – traffic corridors (Slovenia as a country)ICT country – the whole country as an ICT convergence test lab

Small (2 million) test market with prompt feed-backHuge human potential (3 universities with over 100.000 students)

Possibilities for pilot projectsStrong cooperation
