Key take-aways
- The formular for innovative (mobility) applications is: relevant data + decentralized infrastructure + trustworthy community
- Building trust between different stakeholders is necessary to build up a cross-domain ecosystem like the mobility data space
- A neutral player is important to bring together all stakeholders and provide a level playing field
The aim of mobility data space is to create innovation from sharing data in a new way and create incentives for data sharing. The data space will be developed into a one-stop-shop for mobility data in Germany and across Europe.
Mr Heindl explained the (mobility) data space as follows: mobility relevant data is fed into a decentralized infrastructure, which is connecting a trustworthy community, sharing data in order to create innovative applications. The infrastructure of the mobility dataspace is scalable: It can be easily applied to other domains or countries.
For useful applications, it is important to share relevant, cross-domain data. The goal of the data space is to tear down walls between different domains and to avoid data silos.
This is only possible with a decentralized infrastructure, which ensures connectivity and trust. With the decentral approach, data remains in the infrastructure of its owner, a precondition for data sovereignty. The mobility data space ensures connectivity, therefore data can be interchanges within a single interface, reducing transaction costs.
A trustworthy community is the precondition for a project like the mobility data space. Mr Heindl stressed that the connection of different stakeholders by a neutral player is important to build trust and provide a level playing field.
The mobility data space creates new solutions and innovations: Use cases include improved traffic forecasting, weather based mobility recommendations, and an optimization of mobility offers.
