Abstract
WAVE (Weigh-in-motion of Axles and Vehicles for Europe) is a research
project, part-funded by the European Commission, with the objective of improving the
accuracy and performance of Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) technology. It has a budget of the
order of $ 2 million and will run from mid 1996 to mid 1998. It has close links and a
substantial overlap of membership with COST323, a pan-European group with
representatives from about 20 countries which coordinates nationally funded activities
relating to WIM. The principal objectives of WAVE are: (i) to improve the accuracy of
WIM systems, (ii) to develop a prototype pan-European WIM database, (iii) to develop
calibration and testing procedures for WIM system performance and accuracy,
particularly for cold climates and (iv) to develop a prototype fibre optic WIM sensor
project, part-funded by the European Commission, with the objective of improving the
