The purpose of this deliverable is to create an Infrastructure Classification Scheme, categorising different road types according to their automated capabilities and mapping these categories to specific and detailed automated functions. As an input, the results of the INFRAMIX deliverable D3.1 (Design and Development of infrastructure Elements) were used. This classification gives a guideline on what support the infrastructure can offer automated vehicles while entering and passing a certain
