GOF4R - Governance of the Interoperability Framework for Rail and Intermodal Mobility

A European research project within the Shift2Rail initiative – IP4: IT Solutions for Attractive Railway Services

The project will complement results from the IT2Rail project and contribute to the IP4 objectives

OVERVIEW

The establishment of good governance will effectively secure the confidence of the industry to use the Interoperability Framework (IF) semantic technologies that will be established under the IP4 Shift2Rail program. The objective of the Governance of the IF for Rail and Intermodal Mobility (GoF4R) project is to define sustainable governance for the IF that will create the right conditions to introduce seamless mobility services and foster the development of multimodal travel services. GoF4R will help to overcome obstacles currently impeding development of market innovation by fostering a large acceptance of the “semantic Web for transportation.”
