Central part in EDITS is the adoption of a specified EDITS Graph Integration Platform (EDITS-GIP) and commonly agreed EDITS-GIP-Interface to allow the exchange of traffic related information among regions.

Approved within the framework of territorial cooperation Programme Central Europe 2007-2013, co-financed by ERDF fund, it includes a pilot project implementation for the cross-border area Italy-Austria-Sovenia, coordinated by FVG Region in cooperation with project partners CEI and Asfinag.

The Demonstration area Austria – Italy – Slovenia covers the cross-border triangular area linking the cities of Villach (AT) – Udine (IT) – Ljubljana (SI).T he pilot within the demonstration area Austria-Italy-Slovenia focuses on individual transport and demonstrates the cross-border exchange of traffic messages among the road operators ASFINAG (Austria), Autovie Venete (Italy) and DARS (Slovenia) in order to provide cross-border information about traffic states. In accordance with the European specifications the EDITS partners within this triangle area defined a European Standard as common basis. Therefore the EDITS partners are taking a leading role in Europe as they demonstrate the exchange of the data in the DATEX II format.
