MobiSpaces

Brief description

Mobility in the urban and maritime domains hugely impacts the global economy, generating data at high rates from an increasing number of moving objects. Management of the complete lifecycle of such data implies that trustworthy and privacy-preserving infrastructures need to be put in place, so that reliable and secure data operations can be provided. Meanwhile, the mobility data exploitation still has a wide potential due to the emerging applications and the environmental footprint caused by mobility. 

From September 2022 to August 2025, the brand new Horizon Europe project MobiSpaces will be developing effective data governance solutions to exploit the huge data volumes produced in secure and trustworthy digital infrastructures to enable data sharing, reuse and interoperability using standardised protocols across different organisations and stakeholders.

Led by GFT in Italy, the 24 complementary partners of the MobiSpaces consortium include technology providers, research performing organisations, mobility data providers and industry.

Our Role

Trust-IT leads the Work Package on “Communication, Exploitation, Standardisation & Roadmapping” to communicate the  results of MobiSpaces and ensure impact through:

• Communication, Dissemination and Stakeholder Engagement: designing, implementing and updating the project website and producing communications materials tailored to the project stakeholders. 
• Standardisation Strategy and Activities:  Ensuring that the project work uses relevant global standards and identifying areas of the project’s research that can be brought into the standardisation process or taken upstream to open source communities.
• Synergies and Cooperation: building synergies with European Cloud and Research Infrastructure initiatives and EU projects and initiatives in the field of cybersecurity and privacy preserving technologies.

Impact

MobiSpaces delivers an end-to-end mobility-aware and optimised data governance platform. Using AI-based mobility analytics to optimise the complete data path and increase energy efficiency contributing to the Mobility Data Space in view of the European green transition. 

MobiSpaces will significantly impact the ability of research & academia, business, citizens & civil society, governments and public organisations, urban authorities & municipalities, maritime authorities, and regulatory & standardisation bodies to make data-driven, evidence-based, and inclusive decisions that leave no one behind.

Funding

MobiSpaces has received funding from the EU’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under Grant Agreement no. 101070279.
