As part of their “Digital Traffic Flow Optimization” project, the state capital of Stuttgart intends to set up an environmentally sensitive traffic management system. This system will include existing components and those currently under development in the overall architecture. It will also complement further components and integrate various vehicle, traffic and environmental data to create a new overall system.

52°North supports SSP Consult by providing services to enable the use of the enviroCar platform for its purposes in the project. We provide operational and technical support for the platform and software as well as software development and consulting services. Software developments include:

• Detection of extreme accelerations and decelerations
• Continuous provision of measurement data
• Support of software development, data preparation and data analysis

During 2023, the project entered the execution phase. The public campaign was launched in March 2023 and continues until November 2025. 52°North helped improve the usability of the enviroCar app and increased support in the different end user scenarios, which include a mix of different Android API levels and smartphone brands. Hundreds of active users contributed data via the enviroCar app with a cumulative driving distance of around 40.000 km in the city of Stuttgart. The insights provided by the data will be used to analyze traffic flow, safety and environmental impact.
