MSP4BIO

MSP4BIO

Improved science-based maritime spatial planning to safeguard and restore biodiversity in a coherent european mpa network

The main objective of MSP4BIO is to develop an integrated and modular Ecological-Socio-Economic (ESE) management framework for the protection and restoration of marine ecosystems. The framework will take into account the criteria and objectives of relevant policies (MSFD, WFD, MSPD, CFP, etc.) and contribute to the EU Biodiversity Strategy (EUBS) 2030 and the Convention on Biological Diversity post-2020 framework. Six test sites in five European Sea Basins have been selected to conduct the analysis and to showcase and operationalise the ESE management framework. The test sites reflect the processes that are taking place at the national, sub-and-supranational levels, at different geographical scales, and focus on different socio-economic and environmental challenges.

Project start and end: august 2022 - august 2025

ROADVIEW

ROADVIEW

Most automated vehicles have been primarily trained and tested under optimal weather and road conditions with clear visibility. However, the systems must prove that they are equally reliable and accurate under any weather and road condition before they can see widespread acceptance and adoption. ROADVIEW (Robust Automated Driving in Extreme Weather) is an EU-funded Horizon Europe Innovation Action aiming to develop robust and cost-efficient in-vehicle perception and decision-making systems for connected and automated vehicles with enhanced performance under harsh weather conditions and different traffic scenarios. The project's innovations are based on a multi-sensor configuration (camera, lidar, radar, geolocation), modelling and filtering of sensor noise, and collaborative perception between infrastructure and vehicle.

SETO

SETO

SETO, a project funded by the European Union under the Horizon 2020 program, aims to address the inefficiencies in the current process of implementing directives and regulations in the transportation sector. This process is time-consuming, resource-intensive, and often applied randomly. It burdens regulatory authorities, leads to disruptions, accidents, infrastructure damage, and harms the environment.

To resolve these issues, SETO is developing an innovative digital platform. This platform collects and integrates data from various sources, providing simplified access to regulatory information. It ensures data security through the use of blockchain technology. It creates an innovative, consistent, and robust enforcement assistance system suitable for multimodal and cross-border environments.

SETO's goals are ambitious. They aim to promote a more competitive and equitable transportation market by optimizing human and economic resources, reducing costs, improving infrastructure sustainability, reducing accidents, and strengthening government control services.
To achieve these goals, the platform will be tested and validated in real-world scenarios with the direct participation of stakeholders. SETO is led by a consortium of 14 partners from seven European countries, bringing a diversity of expertise and know-how to all stages of the transportation value chain. This diversity will ensure the dissemination and exploitation of products and technologies developed within the SETO project.

Cerema Centre-Est, through its Department of Risk, Infrastructure, and Materials (DRIM), participates in the SETO project as a partner, developing an innovative system to identify and detect heavy vehicle axles, including when they are raised using inductive loops. Cerema also contributes to improving weigh-in-motion techniques and participates in tests of onboard weighing systems for heavy vehicles.

AWARD

AWARD

AWARD’s objective is to bring disruptive changes in the logistic industry by scaling Autonomous Driving Vehicles (AD Vehicles) system and Logistics Operation & Fleet Management (LOFM) system for heavy-duty vehicles, targeting compliance with ISO 26262 and taking into consideration SOTIF recommendations. The AD Vehicles’ Autonomous Driving System (ADS) will be based on multiple sensor modalities and an embedded teleoperation system to address 24/7 availability. The ADS will then be integrated into multiple vehicle types used in low-speed areas. Finally, these vehicles will be deployed, integrated and operated in a variety of real-life use cases to validate their value in the application and identify any limitations and functional level to address 24/7 availability. This challenge will be particularly tackled by extending the AD Vehicles performances under harsh weather conditions (rain, fog, snow) that are today limiting the Operation Design Domain (ODD), which describes the specific conditions under which a given AD Vehicle or feature is intended to operate. These are to be developed along with an adapted regulatory framework for autonomous logistics operations in warehouses, airports, and ports.

PASSPORT

Passeport

PASSPORT project is financed by the EU Space Program Agency (EUSPA). It aims at developing an operational platform managing a fleet of semi-autonomous drones exploiting GNSS high accuracy and authentication to improve security and safety in port areas. The platform integrates and displays diverse data: context awareness, communication with operators, real-time images and positioning. Several validation campaigns were conducted: Szczecin (Poland), Valencia (Spain), Hamburg (Germany), Le Havre (France), Ravenna (Italy). Sistematica is the project coordinator.

The Cerema contributed to the organisation of the French validation campaign, which was conducted in September. It identified possible ports and scenarios. It co-organised a public live demonstration, during which two drones were operated simultaneously: Boreal (4.2 m fixed-wing) and Ventura (multi-rotary wings drone). These drones followed a ship in the port area. The tested scenario was the protection against non-cooperatives small crafts approaching the port areas.

Bison

BisonHuman activities are mainly at the root of the massive collapse in biodiversity that is currently taking place. "In most parts of the world today, nature has been significantly altered by multiple human factors, and the vast majority of ecosystem and biodiversity indicators show a rapid decline. In total, 75% of the earth's surface is significantly altered...". Transport activities and infrastructures bear a share of the responsibility. However, solutions have been put in place since the early 1960s, and efforts to reduce the impact of infrastructures on biodiversity are growing all over the world, and particularly in Europe. The aim of the Horizon Europe BISON (Biodiversity and Infrastructure Synergies and Opportunities for European Transport Networks) project is to draw up a Europe-wide assessment of the actions, tools and practices applied throughout the life of a transport and energy infrastructure project that promote better integration of biodiversity. The best of these tools and techniques were selected for dissemination across the continent. This process also made it possible to reveal the barriers to their dissemination and local appropriation, to detect gaps in technical and scientific knowledge, and to identify the most up-to-date emerging themes. These elements were after several analyses then used to define a Strategic Research and Deployment Agenda (SRDA), revealing the research themes that remain to be investigated and based in particular on the dissemination of knowledge and. In this regard, an online technical handbook and guides on tools and technics, regulation and defragmentation has been produced by the BISON team for the benefit of the European Union. Cerema (and most of the Territorial Divisions as well as the DTecREM, managed by DTerSud-Ouest) has been heavily involved in all the WorkPackages of this BISON project, being the 6th in terms of the share of the overall BISON project budget allocated to Cerema, out of a total of 42 European partners. Thanks to this BISON project, Cerema is now seen as a key partner by most players in the field of biodiversity and transport infrastructure. All the deliverables from the BISON project will be available just before the end of the project on December 2023.

3SQAIR

3SQAIR

According to several studies, chronic exposure to indoor air pollutants causes problems such as allergies and respiratory issues, as well as other issues that can go unnoticed. For example, mental fatigue or decreased concentration levels, which affects intellectual performance and productivity. Around 70% of European schools, at some stage, exceed the maximum permissible levels of CO2 and, in turn, educational establishments account for one fifth of the tertiary sector’s building stock. Due to a lack of ventilation or a defective air renewal system, as well as high classroom occupancy rates, the indoor air in these buildings is often contaminated.

The 3SQAIR project (Sustainable Smart Strategy for Air Quality Assurance in Classrooms) aims at improving our gnowledge of the Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) in educational buildings and identifying smart and sustainable innovation strategies at a national and regional levels. Its main objective is to develop a common strategy for achieving sustainable solutions that guarantee acceptable IAQ in classrooms.
