logging to extend the functionality of EB Assist ADTF.
To enable and/or enhance the functionalities of advanced driver
assistance systems (ADAS), vehicle manufacturers want to access and use the information
provided by navigation systems such as map data, vehicle position, and speed. Today,
however, navigation map databases are only accessible to navigation applications and
stored in the proprietary format of the navigation system. In order for ADAS
applications to access this data, an appropriate information exchange interface must be
defined. This is the overall aim of the ADASIS Forum.
