Abstract
The METAFORA project is one of the five EU financed DRIVE II projects directly related to freight and fleet management. The primary goal of the project is to test the applicability in real life conditions of a set of technologies that provide: fleet/vehicle monitoring, and electronic data interchange. By focusing on applications and user participation the project calculated and demonstrated to SME's the associated costs and benefits of using these technologies.<>
