Ensuring seamless exchanges of data between different systems and stakeholders to improve data integration and interoperability is of crucial importance. Protecting the integrity and confidentiality of transport data is essential, which highlights the need for enhanced cybersecurity measures, in line with the General Data Protection Regulation.
PROMOTING ECO-FRIENDLY TRANSPORT SOLUTIONS IS VITAL TO REDUCE EMISSIONS AND SUPPORT ENVIRONMENTAL GOALS, CONTRIBUTING TO SUSTAINABILITY.
The European Commission emphasizes the importance of providing accurate and prompt real-time traffic information (RTTI) to improve road safety and user experience.
VERKKO mobility data key objectives
- enhance traffic management, optimise traffic flows and enhance road safety through real-time data, predictive analysis and advanced communication technologies
- improve the integration and interoperability of various data sources ensuring interoperability between different systems
- support the development and deployment of autonomous and connected vehicle technologies by providing the necessary infrastructure and regulatory frameworks
- contribute to environmental sustainability by reducing congestion, optimising traffic flows and promoting the use of eco-friendly transport options
- enhance the user experience by improving the travel experience through the provision of real-time information, planning tools for journeys and roadside assistance, helping users make informed travel decisions
- digitalise and modernise traffic management and road infrastructure, so to enhance the efficiency and reliability of transport systems and support the transition to a digitalised road network
- enhance cybersecurity in logistics and transport systems to protect data integrity and confidentiality, ensuring the secure operation of digital infrastructure
- promote cross-border cooperation and harmonisation of traffic management systems to support the seamless integration of transport networks across Europe
Facilitating the harmonisation of transport systems across europe is important for enhancing connectivity and efficiency through cross-border cooperation.
The European Commission encourages the development and deployment of advanced transport technologies, including autonomous and connected vehicles, to drive innovation in the transport sector.
