Overview
The Vehicle Signal Specification (VSS) is a COVESA project which dates back to 2016.
Starting in 2020, COVESA and W3C then started the Common Vehicle Interface Initiative (CVII) and VSS was proposed as potential starting point to achieve an industry-common data model.
At the start of 2022 VSS is now being adopted widely and continues to be the assumed starting point for determining an industry-common way to describe data
Examples:
- VSS is being adopted or required in industry software platforms, such as its use in the AWS Fleetwise platform.
- The W3C specification for vehicle data exchange protocol - Vehicle Information Service Specification (VISS) is based on data in VSS format.
- VSS is being linked into other data projects like the Open Insurance Think Tank (OPIN) data definitions.
Scope
What is the scope of the VSS project?
...
- The definition of how to define (any) vehicle signals according to the VSS Model rules
- The definition of a proposed VSS Standard Catalog, containing a large variety of standard definitions for vehicle data, organized as a tree.
These are both described in the corresponding GitHub project and its documentation.
As a complement to the specification, develop VSS-related software technologies:
3. Open-source licensed tools to transform and work with VSS are in vss-tools.
