Project Leaflet
CARMA is a national Greek project aiming at building an innovative and comprehensive ICT system targeted for supporting and promoting Green daily commuting habits, with a particular focus on helping the user save on fuel expenses, time, and greenhouse gas emissions, on a regular and daily basis.
CARMA will enable the provision of advanced Green road-transport services to the end users. More precisely, CARMA will address the following popular use cases:
- Through CARMA users will be able to get informed about the amount of fuel, money, time, or CO2 they spend on routes on which they travel.
- They will also be able to compare different alternative routing options for getting to their destination, e.g. choosing a motorway vs. an avenue, etc.
CARMA’s ambition is to provide reliable feedback to the users on how much fuel, money, time, and CO2 they spend when driving their way to their destinations
- Users will be able to see such comparative results directly on their mobile devices, as well as on the Web, thus getting proper feedback on their routing choices.
- CARMA will also enable the extraction of important but not easily identifiable road usage patterns. Thanks to its holistic ICT-based approach, CARMA will provide an invaluable tool (“O-D”: origin and destination matrices) to road operators and authorities for efficiently analyzing the traffic demand and for better serving the public.
