In your home team with about 4 other participants, you will discuss the Key for Future Mobility. What are the challenges DATEX II faces? What is needed for further standardisation? How can we organise ourselves as a community? You will do this in different sessions during the User Forum. Your suggestions and insights will be captured by physically attaching strings on a giant data board. And all this will lead to the ‘Declaration of Bucharest’.
The panel will discuss the importance of standardisation as a prerequisite to realise a European future of mobilisation. Also, the panel will exchange on how to connect to new user communities and support the network's growth. The panel will be interactive as participants will join on one two of the empty chairs. Our guest Luka Krevs, CEO of the Slovenian company Realis d.o.o, will fill also fill one of the chairs.
In your home team you will discover the first questions you need to answer for the Key for Future Mobility. Will you define and find the code through the challenges DATEX II faces? But first: get to know one and other and the string board.
Workshop leader: Jean-Philippe Mechin
Get updated on the different collaborations of DATEX II and the interoperability of standards.
to achieve these objectives, a practical use case based on the localization repository will involve each of you in small groups. We will then share our results and learn more about the work being done within DATEX II to unify the future of standards.

DATEX@NAPs is like an extensive travel journal documenting our journey across all EU countries and their NAPs.
Consumers will find links to NAPs, XML samples and schemas, audited protocols, and other technical resources. Providers will discover a rich set of hints and best practices, while their managers will receive a checklist and requirements to help their staff become even better data providers. DATEX@NAPs is a study conducted by TamTam Research s.r.o. (Czechia) and CERTH (Greece).

DATEX II is the reference data standard in the EU for road traffic and travel information. To harvest the benefits of
digitalization in your domain using DATEX II is a good first step, but engaging in the further development is an important follow up. Once you consider DATEX II as a strategic building block to achieve your policy aims with regard to traffic management, public space operations, EV-charging and parking operations, the full power of DATEX II becomes available. Especially the European scale, harmonisation and alignment with adjoining (service specific) domains will be beneficial to you becoming compliant with the EU regulations. This session will show you how and demonstrate that engagement in the EU DATEX II community will support your aims with regard to digital services on a substantial scale!

We will shortly dive into regulatory and policy aspects of European legislation and show you
extensively how DATEX II can support compliance with Delegated Regulation and ITS Directive requirements through the use of minimum European profiles, facilitating seamless data exchange and ensuring regulatory adherence. Please bring your computer if possible.

Together with experts from various National Road Operators we will take a look at several currently operating data hubs.
We will discuss the various approaches they took to overcome the nightmare of unifying seemingly incompatible legacy data inputs. In general, the implementation of a data hub on top of legacy systems always requires similar implementation modules. The ‘magic’ lies in the correct partitioning, ordering and prioritizing of the modules and sticking to overriding concepts. We will gain insights by doing some intuitive and improvised re-arranging of modules on the drawing board and discussing the pros and cons with forum attendees.

Please bring your computer if possible. Ian will explain the workflow for extending and profiling the DATEX II UML model,
then in pairs or small groups we will perform the workflow on our computers. Starting with the DATEX II UML model, you will learn how to select the things that you need for your DATEX II services, and how to create compliant and interoperable extensions for your specific local needs. You will learn how to use the DATEX II schema wizard to produce profiled schemas that can be used in your services or specifications.

In this workshop, we will engage in hands-on coding to build a simple DATEX II server and client.
We will go through the steps from beginning to end, focusing on key aspects from a DATEX II developer’s perspective. Participants will work in groups. Please bring your laptop and ensure you have a GitHub account that allows you to create Codespaces (all free accounts have this feature).

Jonas Jäderberg will co-lead this workshop
Ian and Jonas will describe the support for JSON and OpenAPI which is now built into the DATEX II tool set,
then in pairs or small groups we will generate code on our computers. We will look inside the JSON schemas generated by the DATEX II schema wizard, to see the kinds of constructs produced. We will take the JSON schema content and add further information to produce the definition of an API, using OpenAPI. You will then generate code that can be used in a service. We will cover Java and C#, depending on participants’ experience. If possible, please bring your computer with a git-hub account that is not prevented from using codespaces by enterprise policies.

ITS Services are created for various domains with shared goals and objectives but unique characteristics.
To achieve interoperability, technology and security issues must be resolved, and stakeholders need to achieve a common understanding. The NAPCORE community supports a NAP-centric vision based on EU legislation to enable ITS Services interoperability, aiming for global orchestration.

We will present planned and envisaged methodologies and features of DATEX II,
and the participants are engaged to bring in their own ideas for the future development. On a practical technical example, we will show some planned possibilities of the DATEX II version 4 methodology like Entities and APIs. Filtering requests will be served by a test server, so that participants can re-enact at home.
