The FleetNet project aims at the development and demonstration of a wireless ad-hoc network for inter-vehicle communications. Key design factors for FleetNet are the capability to distribute locally relevant data where generated and/or needed and to satisfy the vehicle drivers' and passengers' needs for location-dependent information and services. In this contribution we introduce some applications of FleetNet and point out technical requirements and challenges. These challenges are described. The applications range from cooperative driver assistance, decentralized Floating Car Data services to user communication and information services. Results obtained from experiments with a fleet of experimental cars will be presented.
