There are various implementations where VSS is used as data model for vehicle data. Beside several closed-source implementations, here are the ones that are shared publicly:
- playground.digital.auto - playground for ideation and collaboration between digital.auto participants using VSS and python.
- Aos Edge - A software first approach to the connected vehicle.
- Provides a protected VSS data server that uses the VISS protocol, VISS client library and a 'getting started' example using VSS as the data model.
- Source repositories
- Eclipse Kuksa - Building blocks for the Software Defined Vehicle
- AWS IoT Fleetwise - Fleet Management software
- W3C Vehicle Information Service Specification - data service for serving VSS data on multiple topologies
OEM Adoption
- BMW
- Mapped proprietary descriptions of vehicle data to VSS, for millions of cars.
- Employing GraphQL to create a backend single access layer for querying data coming from various storage and streaming systems. Demonstrated backend application based on this solution. While for data streaming use cases, other technologies that are supporting VSS might be in place.
- Volvo
- Ford
- EV Charging Event Data Aggregation project led by Ford is actively updating the VSS model for EV Charging
- Internally working with VSS as a starting point for a variety of data related and development projects

Spotlight Series
COVESA Spotlight is a series where member organizations from the COVESA Community present their use/implementation of COVESA's Vehicle Signal Specification answering the following questions:
- Why VSS was used? / The value of using VSS?
- How VSS was used?
- What could be improved in VSS?
You can find the past presentations from the series here. If you are interested in presenting your VSS implementation, please contact the Community Director.
Joint Projects with W3C
Covesa has joint projects to develop and standardize certain technology through the W3C process.
