ANDATA News

After the webinar on Systematic ADAS/ADS Safety Validation on 13 March, the topic will be explored in greater depth at SafetyWeek 2026 between 14 and 16 April 2026 in Hanau. In particular, the topic of scenario-based testing will be dealt with in several sessions. This brings the topic of Scenario-Management-as-a-Service into the mainstream, which we introduced back in 2017 as part of the WienZWA project at the then SafetyWeek 9 years ago.

It will then continue from May 5-7 in Bamberg at the NAFEMS DACH Conference 2026.

ANDATA will be represented with 2 presentations from the field of commodo (complex modeling and simulation operations). Again, the focus is on how to get the most out of extensive numerical simulations with the clever application of artificial intelligence.

And then ANDATA will be represented as a Silver Sponsor at the automotive CAE Grand Challenge of carhs in Hanau on May 19/20.

In addition to the booth, there will also be a presentation on the topic of commodo on the combined application of CAE and AI.

In the run-up to this year's SafetyWeek, a webinar on the topic of scenario-based testing for the validation and release of automated driving functions will take place this Friday organized by carhs.

ANDATA contributes a lecture. As already explained in our previous WienZWA project, the validation of automated driving requires several data sources and scenario catalogues from extensive system simulations, tests at the proving ground and observations from operation in the real traffic environment.

ANDATA's core competence is the skilful preparation and combination of this data as well as the merging into a uniform scenario catalogue in order to complement and leverage each other. This is intended to achieve a valid and trustworthy release of automated and connected driving functions with reasonable effort.

For further discussion, meet us at the Safety Week on April 15/16th 2026 in Hanau.

This week the kick-off of ROBERTA (Real wOrld automated Bus opERaTion Austria), the Austrian flagship project for the preparations for the introduction of automated people movers into regular service in the provinces of Tyrol, Upper Austria, Carinthia and Styria took place.

Under the leadership of the University of Applied Sciences Steyr, 19 partners from transport, and industry are working on integrating automated buses (Level 4) into public transport safely, efficiently and in a socially meaningful way.

Among them is ANDATA with its contribution to scenario and ODD management.

ANDATA will be at the International Mobility Days 2025 in Vienna with a presentation on VERONET, AI (Artificial Intelligence) and SDI (Software-Defined-Infrastructure).

The point of view that will be claimed there is the following: In the field of automated driving, one topic is emerging as the key to mastering the immense complexity - the so-called Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV for short) with its

• the underlying development processes,
• Artificial Intelligence for excellent functionality and
• vehicle connectivity as an enabler for continuous learning and improvement.

However, if the topic is consistently taken further, then one should not stop at the SDV, but must go even further to generally overcome traffic problems and expand this approach to Software-Defined-Infrastructure (SDI).

This brings us to VERONET - the reinvention of traffic control and traffic management in order to actually bring the advantages of vehicle and infrastructure connectivity and automated driving into effect.

ANDATA can be found from Sep. 30th to Oct. 2nd in Berlin at the Smart Country Convention 2025.
