ASAM SOVD has established itself as a powerful diagnostic API that can access vehicle data for both diagnostic and all other purposes. ASAM SOVD is particularly helpful for diagnosing and accessing vehicle data in the context of the software-defined vehicle (SDV). While implementing the standard and preparing for the ISO review, several comments and feature requests were collected, highlighting the need for improvements and further development.

Trust in virtual homologation relies not only on the transparency of the simulation process, but also on the quality of the underlying models, frameworks, and related tools. While several initiatives and research projects, such as prostep IVIP, INTACS, SetLEVEL, EVIDENT, and HAIViSH, have advanced the discussion on credibility, there remains a critical gap: no standardized metrics exist to assess the quality of simulation frameworks and models, particularly in sensor simulation. The goal of this project is to start the discussion on a new standardized, machine-readable data format for storing and exchanging quality metrics for Simulation frameworks and models. The scope also includes defining an agreed, use-case–specific weighting of the respective metrics to emphasize features relevant to particular tasks.

Main goal of this project is to extend ASAM OTX Extensions for ASAM SOVD as defined in ISO 17978-3. The current extension of ASAM OTX Extensions 3.3.0 only supports the functionalities described in ASAM SOVD 1.0.0. This new project is addressing the request by the market to also support functionalities of the upcoming version ASAM SOVD 1.1.0.

This ASAM project aims to standardize key aspects of Vehicle Occupant Monitoring Systems (VOMS) through two deliverables: a platform-independent API for seamless integration of VOMS into vehicle systems, and a standardized data model (VOMS-QA) for the testing and validation ecosystem around VOMS. The future standards will support interoperability, enable efficient toolchain integration, and foster innovation in safety-critical applications. Alignment with existing ASAM standards (e.g. ASAM OpenX standards) will be explored during the project.

ASAM CMP defines the communication between capture modules and data sinks and is transported over Ethernet. So far, ASAM CMP supports data messages, status messages and control messages. The standard shall now be enhanced to allow the replay of data, capturing the beacon timestamp of ethernet in shared medium networks (multidrop), and the support of TSN preemption (e.g. via raw logging).

After the release of the ASAM OpenTestSpecification concept paper, ASAM is now ready to initiate a follow-up project. This project aims to extend three major ASAM standards, ASAM ODS, ASAM OTX Extensions, and ASAM XIL, with the goal to align their development with the requirements outlined in the concept paper. Additionally, a new overarching Standard "ASAM TestSpecification" may be developed, depending on the further development of some of the concepts.

Combining the reference-line-based ASAM OpenDRIVE with OGC's CityGML represents a transformative approach to road space modeling for advanced driver assistance systems and automated driving. While ASAM OpenDRIVE is effective for road descriptions, it encounters challenges when dealing with complexity and detailed environmental data. Conversely, CityGML excels in 3D city modeling, offering rich semantic and geometric data, but it lacks detailed road logic.

ASAM ODS shall be extended by a new associated standard for an application model for openMDM 5 and some extensions for the Instrumentation standard as well as some bug fixes of the current version. Besides that, the definition of streaming data in ASAM MDF shall be implemented in ASAM ODS and a concept for an ADAS-application model shall be defined which will be aligned with the ASAM OpenTestSpecification concept group. An additional task of the project group is to prepare an ASAM ODS cross test.

ASAM SOVD 1.0.0 provides a solid set of building blocks for the diagnosis of software-based vehicles. Due to the large content of ASAM SOVD V1.0.0, there are still requirements that have not been addressed yet. In addition, first implementations as well as further standardization activities in ISO and AUTOSAR are currently being performed. This project shall also consider the feedback from these activities and incorporate change requests into the following release.
