Making High Quality Data Accessible

The first anniversary of the Transport Data Commons (TDC) Initiative marks a milestone for anyone interested in open and sound data collection and management to enable transport decarbonisation and sustainable mobility.

With a prototype database up and running to demonstrate the vision, an effective organisational set-up and initial seed funding from Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States of America, the Transport Data Commons Initiative is ready to move into full operations and absorb more funding in its second year of life.
