CAM (Cooperative Awareness Message)

Compatible vehicles broadcast CAM messages at 1 - 10 Hz (typically 4 times per second).

A CAM message contains:

  1. GPS position
  2. Speed
  3. Heading
  4. Longitudinal and lateral acceleration
  5. Vehicle length and width
  6. Status of the lights, e.g. indicators, low beam, rear fog light, …

Since 2019, more and more cars have been equipped with C-ITS and send this data as long as Car2x is enabled in the menu.

We use this data to display vehicles on the map:
