2 likes413 views
This document discusses the current status and remaining issues regarding eCall and third-party service eCall. It summarizes that while 28 EU member states are active in implementing eCall, progress depends on technical expertise. Third-party eCall is growing rapidly and will continue through 2017-2018. Key issues that remain include engagement from member states and mobile network operators, understanding how to handle digital data from eCalls, and ensuring emergency services are prepared to receive and manage eCalls by October 2017. The document recommends that public safety answering points understand eCall data formats and sources, have certified eCall handling equipment, and have plans to share data between agencies in response to eCalls.
