HeERO Newsletter - Issue 1

February 2012

 .

At European level, the HeERO project will prepare, coordinate and carry-out pre-deployment pilot projects of the EU-wide eCall, which is based on the single European emergency number 112. The consortium will test and validate in real condition pilots the common European eCall standards defined and approved by the European Standardisation Bodies.

During three years (January 2011 to December 2013), thanks to a strong cross-border cooperation, the nine European countries forming the HeERO consortium will carry out the start-up of an interoperable and harmonised 112 based in-vehicle emergency call system.

Croatia, Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, Greece, Italy, The Netherlands, Romania and Sweden are all sharing the same high-level objective: prepare the local 112 eCall infrastructure necessary for the provision of a sustainable eCall service for the European citizens and share their experiences with the other EU Members and Associated States.
