Objectives

SURFACE’s main goals are as follows:

to provide the European Community, CEN (review EN 13201 road lighting) and CIE (TC4-50, review of CIE/PIARC TR 66), with data on the existing materials considering the measurement uncertainty
to define new measuring geometries to meet present and future lighting requirements concerning LED-smart lighting systems, adaptative systems and self driving car
to produce reference materials to calibrate measurement systems of the road surfaces photometric properties
to provide an open source software to calculate the measurement uncertainty of the measured photometric properties
to organise a workshop on road surfaces photometric properties to be be held in October 2017 during the CIE Mid-term Conference (Korea)
to disseminate the project final results through an Intenational Symposium on road surfaces in 2019 with special focus on photometric properties
to set up a stakeholder group, including industries, road constructors and operators, lighting designers, and associations, to whom the project final results will be transmitted free of charge (the participation in the project as a stakeholder is totally free).
