Overview

Responsibilites

host the Vehicle Data Project(VSS) ensuring a consistent vehicle data rule set & development of a vehicle data catalog
discuss and document a personal data model (PDM) and align with best practices of privacy and identity
host discussion on vehicle data concepts and related tooling

The Data Models and Ontologies Pillar may:

discuss interaction with other domain models Includes the following existing activities:•Vehicle Signal Specification project

Proposal name	Author	Slides presented at COVESA AMM Porto (April 2023)	Main idea(s)
Transforming from a vehicle centric data model to a domain agnostic information model	Ulf Bjorkengren (Ford)
Defining the COVESA data modeling strategy and its associated artifacts	Daniel Alvarez (BMW AG)		Use the right tool for the job. Do not try to cover multiple domains with only one tree. There are other types of data models that are more expressive than a tree. Use an standard language to express cross-references (e.g., RDF). Use ontologies to handle data integration and the identification of resources. Provide the mechanisms to sync a tree to an ontology, and standardise the steps to follow. Do you need a data model, or are you looking for a use-case specific data schema? For more details, see the extended description.
