Project LOD-RoadTran18

The service publishing Czech SRTI as LOD has been created as part of a project called LOD-RoadTran18.

The LOD-RoadTran18 has focused on providing existing DATEX II SRTI data sources for Czechia and Spain in form of Linked Open Data.

Annotation

The Action’s objective is to support the re-use of Road Traffic Data in and across the Czech Republic and Spain, making this data accessible, searchable, interoperable, and reusable via the European Data portal, and enabling it to be connected to data from other sectors by using Linked Open Data (LOD).

Specifically, the Action will:

  1. Use the LOD DATEX II model as a complement to DATEX II XML, in order to facilitate accessibility to European traffic data and services.

  2. Create a specific common metadata model and validation tools to represent this type of information and making it accessible through NAPs to increase interoperability by homogenising the descriptors of data catalogues.

  3. Develop a LOD enhanced Traffic Information System with semantic capabilities, which includes the use of LOD DATEX II and a common metadata model which would allow the incorporation of new publishers, datasets, data description and discovery services.
