Abstract
The NorSIKT project is carried out in cooperation between all Nordic countries (Sweden, Denmark, Island, Finland and Norway) and is financed by the NordFOU Research Cooperation (ministered by the Director Generals in each country). The main objective of the NorSIKT project is to standardize the system for classification of motor vehicles in the Nordic countries in order.In the first phase of the project a detailed survey of the traffic data system in the Nordic countries was carried out. The state-of-the-art report presents the situation in terms of current definitions for the classification of vehicles and describes the traffic counting systems in each country. The state-of-the-art report has furthermore been used as a basis for developing a preliminary vehicle classification system introducing some new principles where vehicles can be classified from different types of properties like length, weight, number of axels, type of fuel, etc. Each country can adopt the classification properties that best meet the needs in the country. In the second and ongoing phase different type of registration equipment on the Nordic market will be tested to investigate how different type of equipment meets different classification principles.
