Transport Data Ecosystem
Industry Workshops Investigating the Data Sharing Ecosystem
The transport data ecosystem is complex and only getting more complex each day. New vehicles, after market devices, privacy and security issues, consumer preference, expanding use cases only scratch the surface.
There is substantial interest in data in transport there are a range of data related activities underway in Australia led by a number of national and state agencies and authorities. In discussions with the ITS Australia Board, our members and the broader transport and technology sector, an opportunity was identified in engaging with stakeholders in the data ecosystem nationally and internationally to better understand the current and potential future challenges and opportunities for data in the transport technology sector.
To facilitate this conversation and ensure the topics are as focused as possible the data ecosystem has been grouped into three key areas of focus:
- Road Safety
- Asset Management and Maintenance
- Traffic, Planning and Operations
While the focus of each workshop differed there were consistent themes across all the three workshops:
- Data applications & use cases
- Standards and protocols
- Multi-modal data
- International sharing arrangements
- Preparing our data for the future
- Opportunities and challenges
For more detail on the speakers and discussions as well as the important next steps see the report below.
