Pilot site visit to Lithuania

On the 10th and 11th of December 2019 D4FLY representatives from VERIDOS, VTT, BPTI, Y.D.E.A.P, PPA and TRILATERAL visited border crossing point areas at the Lithuania-Belarus land border.

The study visit was hosted by the State Border Guard Service (SBGS) and included observation and interviews with border authorities at four different locations:

  • Raigardas border crossing point
  • Latežeris border crossing point 
  • Šalcininkai border crossing point
  • Tribonys Frontier Station

Current infrastructure and processes in Land border control management have been discussed aiming to identify challenges and implications being faced by the border guards in a daily routine. The scope of the discussions and site observation was to better define the corresponding D4FLY use case scenario so as to serve the needs of the targeted end-users.
