description The rapid integration of Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) into modern transportation systems necessitates a robust and systematic approach to assess the quality of the underlying digital infrastructure. In the presented work, we propose a methodology and evaluation of framework that can be used to assess digital infrastructure segments based on their readiness for the deployment of CAVs. The methodology encompasses a comprehensive framework that collects, processes, and evaluates diverse data sources, including real-time traffic, communication, and environmental data. The proposed framework is developed based on experimental data and provides a systematic approach to assess infrastructure readiness for CAVs. The proposed methodology is applied in a system for detecting the readiness status of digital infrastructure from a Cooperative, Connected, and Automated Mobility (CCAM) perspective. The system can determine the percentage of non-compliance of technical service requirements in terms of latency, bandwidth, and localization accuracy. Thanks to this, we can determine in advance in which state the current digital infrastructure is and which services can be currently operated, and thus locate the segments of the route in which the telecommunication systems need to be supported.
