The German Mobility Data Marketplace and Traffic Data of the Federal State of Saxony-Anhalt

The collection of real-time traffic data and their availability for exchange is an essential precondition for the provision of traffic information services and mobility management. Whereas traffic data is being continuously collected in many cities, at motorways and in rural areas their standardized provision for exchange between interested data consumers is an on-going subject of research and development. In Germany, the Mobility Data Marketplace (MDM) project of the Federal Highway Research Institute (BASt) was established to provide a common platform to allow an improved access to current traffic data and real-time traffic information. The paper presents a report on the state of a project that aims to establish an operational data exchange between suppliers, improvers and consumers of traffic data using push and pull service mechanisms of DATEX II. Subject of data exchange are primarily the state-wide traffic condition forecast as well as roadworks and closures information in the state of Saxony-Anhalt. The users and consumers of real-time data are placed in a position to take advantage from improved navigation services especially in the field of heavy and wide load commercial transports. The concept includes the data to be exchanged over MDM and be used in a mobile navigation computer.
