Abstract
SBD' s research combines a technical guide to the subject with clear and simple explanations of the basic concepts together with a comprehensive review of the latest plans and trials of TPEG services on a country-by-country basis.
This report will help you to:
** Understand the implications of TPEG on the design of your future navigation systems
** Avoid costly mistakes by learning which "flavour" of TPEG is most likely to succeed
** Align the development of your TPEG products with the roadmap for services in Europe
** Develop a profitable business model by taking advantage of the flexible content and access control that TPEG offers
