Overview
The Data Expert Group (DEG) is chartered to provide COVESA a single entity in which best practices and common approaches for connected vehicle data and interfaces are discussed, documented, and where appropriate, proved. An industry driver is to facilitate, simplify, and reduce integration efforts on those things that are common to enable focus on new experiences, business opportunities and revenue streams.
The expert group will work under the oversight of the COVESA Technical Steering Team and will be organized to explore interactions with multiple Touchpoints (integration points) on its own as well as horizontally in support of other Expert Groups such as Electric Vehicle Charging Expert Group. Touchpoints out-of-scope shall be tracked by the Technical Steering Team and may, from time to time, require analysis based on work done in other regulatory or standardization bodies.

The group shall be organized around four pillars with existing activities (e.g. groups, projects and initiatives) mapped in as determined by the Board:
