On 8th December Andrea Detti from CNIT presented the paper “OpenGeoBase: Information Centric Networking meets Spatial Database applications” at IEEE Globecom 2016, Workshop on Information Centric Networking Solutions for Real World Applications, Washington D.C. The paper describes the federated spatial database architecture, named OpenGeoBase, which is based on ICN technology and that the BONVOYAGE project is proposing to support the ITS Directive 2010/40/EU of European Union (Action A – Travel information and linking services). Such a database provides geo-sharing of the spatial data, geo-routing of queries/insertions and data-centric security, which are attractive features for realizing a network of National Access Point, offering cross border discovery functionality for ITS data and services, as foreseen by the EU directive. The presentation is available here.
