Using DTMon to Monitor Free Flow Traffichadiarbabi
We present DTMon, a dynamic traffic monitiroing system using vehicular networks, and analyze its performance in free flow (i.e., non-congested) traffic. DTMon uses roadside infrastructure to gather and report current traffic conditions to traffic management centers and equipped vehicles. We analyze how traffic characteristics such as speed, flow rate, percentage of communicating vehicles, and distance from the DTMon measurement point to the roadside infrastructure affects the amount and quality of data that can be gathered and delivered. We evaluate five different methods of delivering data from vehicles to the roadside infrastructure, including pure vehicle-to-vehicle communication, store-and-carry, and hybrid methods. Methods that employ some amount of store-and-carry can increase the delivery rate, but also increase the message delay. We show that with just a few pieces of roadside infrastructure, DTMon can gather high-quality travel time and speed data even with a low percentage of communicating vehicles.
Traveline Information Limited (TIL) provides public transport information across multiple channels in the UK. TIL is changing to promote open data and collaborative working.

Going forward, TIL aims to further standardize data and delivery formats to improve integration and quality of open transport information nationwide.
How can Open Data Revolutionise your Rail Travel?theODI
Friday Lunchtime Lectures at the Open Data Institute. For our fourth lecture... How can open data revolutionise your rail travel? The release of open data on public transport over the last year has laid bare the the secrets of cheap fares, true timekeeping records and the best alternative routes the official journey planners don't tell you. Jonathan Raper, digital geographer and founder of Placr, will draw back the curtain on this new era and reveal how you can make the most of it.
Open rail data can revolutionize travel by making industry data available and enabling new applications. Key questions around rail include who controls infrastructure, how the system is structured and funded. New apps using open data could monitor punctuality, find cheap fares, and integrate transport options. The National Rail Enquiries monopoly is ending as Network Rail releases real-time train location data. This will allow third-party developers like Placr to build applications that provide independent performance monitoring and new ways for passengers to get rail information and plan journeys.

A Car as a Semantic Web Thing - Motivation and DemonstrationBenjamin Klotz
Car signal data is usually hard to access, understand
and integrate for non automotive domain experts.
In this paper, we use semantic technologies for enriching
signal data in the automotive industry and access it through
Web of Things interactions. This combination allows the access
and integration of car data from the web.
We built VSSo, a Vehicle Signal ontology based on
SOSA/SSN Observations and Actuations, and generated WoT
Actions, Events and Properties, enriched with domain metadata.
We mapped VSSo to a Web of Things ontology and we
developed a Web of Things protocol binding with LwM2M,
and made an implementation in a real car.
This implementation resulted in a first working prototype,
and a number of future improvements required in order to be
compliant with automotive standards.
The document discusses challenges with transportation data including issues of currency, validity, scalability, and copyright. It presents TransportAPI as a platform that can help address these challenges by providing automated, continuously updated data infrastructure as a service without vendor lock-in. TransportAPI signs up more users each month and partners with organizations to help them better utilize transportation data.
Placr aggregates real-time transport data from various sources and provides it through their TransportAPI service. TransportAPI makes vast amounts of transport data available to developers through a cloud-based API. It currently provides data on trains, buses, and the London Underground and has over 250 developers signed up. TransportAPI enables new transport applications and solutions by allowing developers access to real-time and historical transport data.
VSSo: the Vehicle Signal and Attribute OntologyBenjamin Klotz
VSSo is an ontology that summarizes and models vehicle signal and attribute data from the Vehicle Signal Specification (VSS). It addresses issues with the original VSS structure and provides formal definitions for concepts like sensors, signals, and vehicle components. The ontology can be used to annotate connected vehicle data and generate semantic trajectories. Future work includes extending it for additional use cases and exploring standardization with the W3C Automotive Working Group.
Semantic Technologies for Vehicle Data - Defense Benjamin Klotz
Vehicles are evolving from purely mechanical entities to highly connected and autonomous ones.
While accessing this new rich data leads to new business and technical opportunities, making vehicle fleets interoperable is still highly challenging with competing standards, numerous vehicle signals and attributes, heterogeneous formats and vehicle architectures. In order to ensure replicability and interoperability we propose to use Semantic Web technologies in this thesis.
In this thesis, we propose VSSo, a vehicle signal and attribute ontology that builds on the automotive standard VSS, and that follows the SSN/SOSA design pattern. VSSo is comprehensive while being extensible for OEMs, so that they can use additional private signals in an interoperable way.
We describe a more general driving context ontology supporting the description of events and states of the various agents of driving situations: drivers, passengers, vehicles, roads, trajectories. We develop tools and demonstrators to highlight the benefit of the driving context ontology in predicting and contextualizing aggressive driving, and recommending POIs and safer routes.
Finally, we contribute to the Web of Things specification by aligning our ontologies with it. We provide automotive-specific requirements and implementations, and highlight the benefit of the Web of Things for automotive application developers.

Transport for London: Using data to keep London movingWSO2
This talk was presented by Sriskandarajah Suhothayan (WSO2) and Roland Major (Transport for London) at the Strata Data Conference in London, May 23 2017.
Transport for London (TfL) uses a wide range of data for operational purposes, but the underlying data is typically held in multiple disconnected systems. Freedom of Information requests have helped prove the value of sharing this data. TfL is embarking on a journey to make more of this data open and available in real time.
TfL and WSO2 have been working together on broader integration projects. Roland Major and Sriskandarajah Suhothayan share the evolving big data and IoT architectures and services TfL is building to pull together these diverse datasets to better support operational teams and accelerate the identification and classification of disruption to improve response times for incidents. In particular, they explore WSO2’s solution, which emerged from the Data in Motion hackathon organized by TfL, AWS, and Geovation. The solution innovates TfL’s heterogeneous data sources through the combination of the TfL Unified API and its operational data sources, including traffic sensor, air quality, and passenger flow data, to provide better travel time and transit suggestions for Londoners and tourists using the WSO2 Data Analytics Server, WSO2 Complex Event Processor, and WSO2 API Manager, bringing together IoT and big data techniques to feed a real-time dashboard of current and predicted transport network status.

Transport-as-a-Service (TaaS) - How we build next generation plug-and-play IT...Christoffer Vig
The digitalization of everyday life, where the average bus passenger would rather ignore the surroundings and stare blankly into his phone for snapchat updates, creates great opportunities for digitalization of public transport, as well as some challenges. Ruter, Norway’s largest public transport authority, is putting significant effort into improving digital services for customers. However, the current technology stack behind Ruter's operations, is not able to provide the necessary real-time information.
In this talk I will explain how Ruter is participating in the development of new European standards for information technology for public transport (ITxPT), and how Apache Kafka and Kafka streams serve as the core components in building "Transport-as-a-Service".

➢ CNN to extract spatial-temporal
features from images of traffic
speed
➢ Prediction of traffic speed up to 20
minutes into the future
SAVANTIC
➢ Detect and classify persons, vehicles, traffic signs,…(autonomous vehicles)
➢ Classify and count persons on-board of vehicles or on platforms (e.g., to calculate
the grade of service)
➢ To predict traffic flow
77. Savantic in Mistra-SAMS
Prototype of a digital platform:
➢ Combined mobility services on a digital
platform
➢ Dynamic incentives based on road traffic
conditions, available parking slots,…
SAVANTIC
Consideration on the open data:
➢ Prediction on traffic available from private
company (e.g., Google).
➢ Parking spots: no information, no booking.
➢ No information on available bikes from bike
sharing services
78. All over the world, the challenges of traffic grow in both
growing cities and sparsely populated areas. Urbanization
causes congestion, health and climate problems and
inefficient, costly transport.
Through the depopulation, rural areas and small urban areas
are affected by declining grounds and poor service.
Today's infrastructure is inefficiently used, accessibility is
deteriorating, business development is hampered and public
finances are affected.
Expanded capacity with more roads attracts more and more
traffic and does not solve the problems. New players are
challenging digital solutions, but without coordination, they
also lead to more traffic and increased problems.
PROBLEM
80. Savantic in Predictive Movement
➢ Look at open data and need of new
➢ Investigate how mobility data (phone-to-mast) can be used in the project
➢ Lab platform to test ideas with users
➢ Collect data from Norbotten (e.g., public transport, sick-trips, goods transport carried out by
Region Norbotten)
Lessons learnt:
➢ Aggregation/anonymization of phone-to-mast data does not allow for fine grain analysis (e.g.,
gain of drive-sharing)
➢ No response regarding data from Norbotten except sick transport data
➢ Sick transport data were anonymized: only ’from’ and ’to’ no O-D pair.
SAVANTIC
81. Requirements on data (machine learning perspective)
➢ Open/Missing (e.g., parking slots)
➢ Standardized (e.g., bike sharing)
➢ Clear description (i.e., what each field represents)
➢ Data cleaning (e.g., remove incorrect data)
➢ Data reduction (e.g., aggregation). Selecting important attributes and method of aggregation
is dependent on application. Solution: to extract data from open database depending on the
application?

84. THE RISE OF PLATFORM
ECOSYSTEMS
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
85. • Platform businesses≠ Stand alone Products/Service business
o Market potential
o Structural difference
▪ Traditional industries
• Exchanges follow a linear path as vendors purchase
inputs, transform them, and sell output.
▪ Platform-mediated networks exchanges have a triangular
structure
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
PLATFORM THINKING
86. • Platform businesses≠ Stand alone Products/Service business
o Management style
▪ Traditional industries
• Attracting customers
• Planned innovation
• Command and control structures
▪ Platform-mediated networks
• Attract users on sides of the platform
• Innovation is emergent
• orchestration
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
PLATFORM THINKING
87. What is a Platform: “an extensible software product or service that serves as a
foundation on which independent outside parties can build complementary products or
services (application) that interoperate through the platform’s interfaces” (Tiwana, 2014)
ELEMENTS OF A PLATFORM
ECOSYSTEM

UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
88. Third-party applications and external actors participating in the innovation
process to create value based on the platform’s interface (Tiwana et al., 2014)
DIGITAL ECOSYSTEM
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
89. • Deepening specialization
• Packetization
• Software embedding
• The internet of things
o Endless amount of data generated by inter connected devices
o Innovation based on data pulled across different firms and users
o Increased context awareness
• Ubiquity
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
DRIVERS OF THE MIGRATION
TOWARDS PLATFORMS
90. • Platform businesses≠ Stand alone Products or Service business
o Supply chains not considered as platform in this context
o Platform need to link/interact with two or more distinct groups of
users
MULTI-SIDEDNESS
Source: Eisenmann et al., (2008).
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
91. NETWORK EFFECT
• Platform are characterized by network effect
• The main thrust of the network effect builds on the rationale that users derive less value from
certain products when consumed in isolation compared to when other users consume similar
products(Katz and Shapiro 1985, 1994).
• Critical Mass
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
92. • The value of a platform is often tightly connected to the user base and interactions in the
ecosystem
o Platform owners
o App developers
o End-users
THE VALUE PROPOSITION OF
PLATFORMS
Tiwana, 2013
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
93. VALUE PROPOSITION FOR PLATFORM OWNERS
• Platform owners
o Massively Distributed innovation
o Risk transfer
o Competitive sustainability
VALUE PROPOSITION FOR APP DEVELOPERS
• APP Developers
o Technology foundation
o Market Access
VALUE PROPOSITION FOR END-USERS
• End-Users
o Mix-and-Match Customization
o Faster innovation and network benefits
o Lower search and transaction cost
UMEÅ UNIVERSITY
94. • Most research focuses at mature phases of a platform and
dominant platforms.
o Little focuses on the start-up phases when platforms orchestrators
may not have the power to negotiate with key actors
o What are the key challenges different actors face when seeking to
generate innovation from platform?
o What are are the essential roles that platforms can provide to
stimulate innovation and collaboration?
o How can organizations transition from internal development to
external development of services with third-parties through
platforms
