Digitrans has been awarded as the Linz Company of the Year 2021 in the category of business cooperation. The award was presented personally by Linz Mayor Klaus Luger to CEO Eva Tatschl-Unterberger at the Digitrans Office in Linz
SWARCO Road Marking Systems is a new cooperation partner of the prominent Digitrans consortium. The experts for innovative marking systems support the test region in gaining important insights for the next stages of automated driving.
The expansion of the proving ground in St. Valentin marks an important step toward the mobility of the future. A state-of-the-art test infrastructure for automated vehicle technologies is to be created in order to develop, test and verify safe, connected and autonomous driving in Austria.
Digitrans and msg Plaut will cooperate in the field of automated safety and vehicle testing in the future and use the joint network for more extensive cooperations and projects.
The “Logistikum” of the FHOÖ is conducting research together with Digitrans on various research projects to further develop automated and networked freight transport. Currently, the focus is on the development of a real test field for automated driving in Upper Austria.
With ASFINAG, Eva Tatschl-Unterberger, Managing Director of DigiTrans GmbH, has brought an important partner on board to push the development of a real test field for automated driving on highways in the Linz central region. The cooperation is intended to help create the basis for safe automated driving.
Digitrans and ANDATA are combining their competencies to jointly develop new business areas and services related to automated and driverless transport systems in the future. The focus is on complementing and combining existing solutions with new approaches to developments in transport automation.
Until now, the use of automated commercial vehicles for testing has been limited. One of the major hurdles up to now has been legislation. At the end of last year, DigiTrans GmbH worked together with Reform-Werke on a change in the law that is unique in Europe.
In a practical use case, research is being conducted in Upper Austria with the two project partners BRP Rotax and the freight forwarder Schenker on a public transport section with an autonomous transport vehicle to find a hub-to-hub logistics application suitable for everyday use and independent of weather conditions.
In the future, automated freight mobility and autonomous vehicles will be the key to being able to implement more environmentally friendly concepts for traffic and freight transport. The new technologies offer numerous opportunities for the sustainable development…

The “Aeroptimizer” platooning project calculates the ideal platoon arrangement for greater efficiency and higher savings potential in the areas of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption. In addition, the drive-independent calculation model enables fair, savings and responsibility-dependent charging models to be derived.
The Austrian test environment Digitrans enables testing of automated driving functions under various infrastructural conditions. In this way, Digitrans is making a significant contribution to further advancing our goal, namely the establishment of an integrated and automated mobility system.
Digitrans helped us understand truck platooning as a future-proof and sustainable solution in good time. With a lot of commitment, a calculation model was created for the first time with the “Aeroptimizer”, which shows us the effectiveness of platooning for special vehicles.
