Hamm’s city administration employees are the first participants to test the CITRAM app. Today’s virtual kickoff informs the participants of the enviroCar driver fleet on the use of ODB (On-Board-Diagnose) adapters with the enviroCar and [ui] ECOMAT apps. Equipped with a car, an Android smart phone and an OBD adapter, the participants will anonymously track their driving along predefined routes for approximately 2 months.
The first fleet of cars will take to the streets on June 15, 2020. The cities of Krefeld (testing in Krefeld) and Chemnitz (testing in Chemnitz) will follow in the coming weeks. Testing should be completed by the end of August.
