Hannover, Germany – At this year’s IAA Transport Congress, HERE Technologies, the world’s leading location data and technology platform, is proud to announce that it has partnered with a commercial vehicle manufacturer to implement Intelligent Speed Assist (ISA) technology to help improve ), road safety and reduce speeding.

The on-board ISA function indicates the legal speed limit of the road to the driver in direct line of sight. This information is displayed on the vehicle’s dashboard, navigation system or aftermarket equipment.

From July 2022, all new cars, vans, trucks and buses sold on the EU market must be equipped with ISA functionality. From July 2024, all newly registered vehicles in the EU will have to be ISA-capable.

HERE is working with its solution partners to support ISA compliance for commercial and passenger vehicle manufacturers by providing high-quality speed limit information covering all EU roads.

HERE ISA Map has been adopted by 15 global automakers representing more than 30 brands, including European and global leaders in the commercial truck industry.

“Historically, ISA functionality has been present in high-end passenger vehicle systems with too few commercial applications,” said Giovanni Lanfranchi, HERE Chief Product and Technology Officer. “We are proud to deliver and validate this critical dataset as European countries Focus on taking immediate steps to improve road safety while paving the way for future deployments of ADAS and autonomous vehicle technologies.”

Truck and automakers must pass ISA vehicle tests before they can be sold, with speed limit data 90 percent accurate over a 400-kilometer driving distance. The requirement is at least three distinct explicit signs and three implied unposted signs.

European roads are challenged by unclear speed limits and a patchwork of local speed limits, rules and regulations in each country. Speed limits over 60% are implied in Europe, with limits based on local road rules but not shown on signage.

ISA content from HERE manages unpublished speed limit challenges by providing speed limit information based on a combination of data sources. For example, relying solely on vehicle camera data is prone to quality challenges without a base map and a proven mapping system.

HERE ISA map contains:

Explicit speed limits visible on road signs, and implicit speed limits derived from road signs without values.
Speed limits defined by road rules and regulations, including national or regional speed limits and conditional rules that may not be signposted and therefore cannot be detected by in-vehicle cameras.
Required road topology with selected attributes to minimize the data footprint of smaller depots, while still enabling e-horizon providers to power ISA functions.
