Provide
a comparative analysis of the transportation data regulation across all
transport modes in the EU;;
Identify
transport flows for which digitalised processes and transport data exchange
will make most impact;
Identify
functional requirements and possible frameworks for data sharing across the
transport system and with the public sector where appropriate – in particular
through a federation of various cloud solutions (a Transport Cloud), taking
into account the FAIR data principles as well as the private data sharing principles[1], including B2G and B2B data
sharing;
Building on existing standards / specifications
that have been adopted by the EU or nationally e.g. DCAT-AP, propose standards
for transport data sharing (including formatting,
metadata descriptions, etc.) that would strike an appropriate balance between sharing
data and proprietary rights. Proposals should clearly define the field of data,
for which a standard shall be considered;
Analyse
the relationships between private and public stakeholders (on local, regional,
national, EU and global level) and their differing approaches to data sharing
principles;
Examine
the role of data sharing culture in the future development of any data sharing
cloud based solutions, analyse methods that foster trust in transport data
networks;
Consider
commercial and competitive risks of data sharing on an international scale as
well as the potential for the EU to set global standards for data sharing;
Identify
main privacy and security issues associated to data sharing, including
preventing data misuse;
Identify
appropriate governance structures and/or processes for the establishment of a
possible Transport Cloud building as much as possible on the existing
frameworks and initiatives.
Proposals
should identify and build on the most relevant previously funded EU and national
projects and reports such as Transforming Transport[1],
BigDataEurope[2],
NOESIS[3],
LeMO[4],
OPTIMUM[5],
SELIS[6],
AEOLIX[7],
oneTRANSPORT[8],EfficienSea 2[9]
etc. A structured method of building up on the achievements of the selected
projects should be proposed. Proposals should include an effective mix of
private and public actors both from the transport and transport research
domains.
