DeployEMDS

Towards a common European Mobility Data Space (EMDS).

The DeployEMDS project marks a key step forward in the European Union’s journey towards the creation of a common data space, facilitating data access, sharing and reuse in the mobility sector.

Through common governance mechanisms, the goal is to unite data providers and users by developing common building blocks and practical applications.

In line with the European Data Strategy and the Smart Sustainable Mobility Strategy, DeployEMDS helps unlock the potential of data to support a more sustainable and efficient urban mobility.

The project will support implementation in nine cities and regions, addressing over 20 use cases related to traffic management, data-driven policymaking and multimodal mobility that will actively contribute to the development of innovative services and applications and to improve local transport policies.

In Barcelona, two iterative use cases will be deployed, serving as pilots for the DeployEMDS data space infrastructure, with the aim of enhancing the regional mobility strategy.

Eurecat leads, through its Big Data & Data Science Unit, the traffic analysis use case that considers the effect of weather conditions on traffic patterns, the impact of traffic on air quality, as well as the development of a traffic prediction model and incident detection model.

The DeployEMDS consortium consists of 45 partners from 11 European countries.
