Cities are increasingly turning to data-driven policies to manage urban mobility, to remain vibrant, livable and safe. Digitalisation and standardised data play a pivotal role in achieving these objectives. By adopting international data standards, cities can seamlessly integrate service offerings from global providers like Google, Here, and TomTom, ensuring a cohesive urban mobility ecosystem. In this session, we will guide you through the landscape of European mobility standards and their practical applications in urban settings. We'll explore how the European NAPCORE platform facilitates interoperability among National Access Points, enhancing data exchange across Europe, helping cities to achieve their goals! Additionally, we'll delve into how these standards ensure that maps are consistently updated with accurate information on speed limits, emission zones, bus routes, roadworks, and real-time events. Such data integration is crucial for encouraging the use of diverse mobility services. Furthermore, we'll examine how standardised data formats enable seamless multimodal journeys. By providing a unified framework, these standards empower cities to offer efficient, user-centric mobility solutions that align with their broader policy goals. Join us to discover how embracing data standards can transform urban mobility, making cities smarter, more sustainable, and more connected.
