PASMO: An open living lab for cooperative ITS and smart regions

PASMO is a regional project aiming to bridge the gap between research and practice in the area of urban mobility support. It covers key access roads to the seaside villages of the Aveiro/Ilhavo region, in the center of Portugal, providing vehicular communications, regular WiFi access, and a myriad of useful mobility services (parking, bikes, jams, weather) under the umbrella of a smart region infrastructure dedicated to simplify the involvement of industry in testing and developing new services. The infrastructure is currently being deployed, and the services will be operational by mid 2018.
