COVESA VSS Wiki

The VSS page on this wiki is a good starting point that leads/points to all of the other locations.   

...

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:  

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
  • VISS implementation, exposing VSS within the vehicle
  • Ideas for Vehicle Signal Set Matching
• 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
• Mercedes 
  • Internally working with VSS as a starting point for a variety of data related and development projects

Open Source Implementations

• 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
  • Repositories and other Resources
• AWS IoT Fleetwise - Fleet Management software
  • Repositories
• W3C Vehicle Information Service Specification - data service for serving VSS data on multiple topologies
