Programme Description
Digital Europe Programme is the first EU programme that aims to accelerate the recovery and drive the digital transformation of Europe.
Worth €7.6 billion (in current prices), the Programme is a part of the next long-term EU budget, (the Multiannual Financial Framework), and it covers 2021 to 2027. It will provide funding for projects in five crucial areas: supercomputing, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, advanced digital skills, and ensuring the wide use of digital technologies across the economy and society.
The Programme is fine-tuned to fill the gap between the research of digital technologies and their deployment, and to bring the results of research to the market – for the benefit of Europe’s citizens and businesses, and in particular SMEs. Investments under the Digital Europe programme supports the Union’s twin objectives of a green transition and digital transformation and strengthens the Union’s resilience and strategic autonomy.

Summary
The objective is to contribute to the further development of the common European Mobility data space announced in the Data Strategy and in the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy, built and operated in full compliance with existing EU legislation in the mobility and transport sectors. The specific aim is to support the creation of a technical infrastructure combined with governance mechanisms that will facilitate easy, cross-border access to key data resources in this area.
Data for sustainable urban mobility indicators (SUMI) and for traffic and travel information in urban and regional areas will be made available for reuse for the development of innovative services and applications, and for policymaking.
Detailed Call Description
Support will be provided to the ongoing Commission initiative launched on the common European Mobility data space, in particular on:
- making an inventory of existing data platforms and marketplaces (“data ecosystems”) which allow storage, processing or sharing of mobility and transport data. Bringing these initiatives together by mapping and providing a catalogue of transport data eco-systems, as well as describing the data types, data quality, related access conditions and (web) links.
- identifying gaps and overlaps of data currently covered (or not covered) by existing initiatives in view of possibly launching additional initiatives to cover such gaps.
- identifying common building blocks which could contribute to the long-term convergence of existing and new data-related initiatives in transport, serving private, public and industrial data sharing. Explore possible options for suitable sustainable frameworks for sharing, managing data exchange across existing and emerging data initiatives in the mobility sector. Include reflections on incentives schemes to motivate participants to provide data.
- identifying opportunities for integrating the mobility data space and/or data ecosystems in the emerging European data and cloud services infrastructure.
The data space will offer among others data on the transport network and its use in real time. Data can reveal sensitive information about critical points including potential vulnerabilities, hence essential for the Union’s security.
Targeted stakeholders: suppliers and users mainly represented by their associations, leading research institutes, and organisation with legal expertise and key competences in mobility, economics, data and cloud technologies.
