Abstract
With the recent introduction of the eCall system, the cars involved in accidents exchange relevant information directly with the emergency healthcare services. For road safety, Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks can be used to exchange safety information between cars and ambulances, via vehicle-2-x communication. In this paper, we exploit recent advances in vehicle-2-x communication and the advantages of knowledge representation and reasoning in order to deploy cooperative communication for medical emergency services. The developed system continuously matches data retrieved from inter-vehicular communication with structured knowledge from vehicular ontologies and open street maps.
