This paper presents the SISTER (Satcoms in Support of Transport on European Roads) project which aims to study the feasibility of use of satellite communications in Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). In particular, it details the architecture designed for the delivery of ITS files and alerts directly to vehicles on the road using an L-band GEO satellite. After describing the elements comprising the communication chain, an analysis of the critical factors affecting the performances of the broadcast is given. Finally, the paper presents an incremental attribute based map updating tool as an example of the ITS applications covered in SISTER.
