This document describes how to use IP-based emergency services
mechanisms to support the next generation of the Pan-European
in-vehicle emergency call service defined under the eSafety
initiative of the European Commission (generally referred to as
"eCall"). eCall is a standardized and mandated system for a special
form of emergency calls placed by vehicles, providing real-time
communications and an integrated set of related data.
This document also registers MIME media types and an Emergency Call
Data Type for the eCall vehicle data and metadata/control data, and
an INFO package to enable carrying this data in SIP INFO requests.
Although this specification is designed to meet the requirements of
next-generation Pan-European eCall (NG-eCall), it is specified
generically such that the technology can be reused or extended to
suit requirements across jurisdictions.
This document is a product of the Emergency Context Resolution with Internet
Technologies Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
