The European Traffic Observatory Measurement Infraestructure (ETOMIC): a Testbed for Universal Active and Passive Measurements

The European Traffic Observatory is a European Union VI Framework Program sponsored effort, within the Integrated Project EVERGROW, that aims at pro-viding a paneuropean traffic measurement infrastruc-ture with high-precision, GPS-synchronized monitoring nodes. This paper describes the system and node archi-tectures, together with the management system. On the other hand, we also present the testing platform that is currently being used for testing ETOMIC nodes before actual deployment. † 1. Introduction an
