Periodic Reporting for period 1 - TripOD (Advanced Analytics for Trip Origin-Destination Matrices)
Période du rapport: 2014-09-01 au 2015-02-28
- The solution has been demonstrated in an operational environment at pre-commercial scale, proving the viability of the technology.
- The potential market has been analysed, characterising the needs, concerns and motivations of different target users.
- The analysis of competitors has helped us shape and differentiate our value proposition, based on bringing together the necessary expertise in the analysis of spatio-temporal data with specific sectoral knowledge.
- The first data use agreements have been put in place in Europe; taking advantage of this experience, other agreements are currently being negotiated for other markets.
- We have defined our strategy of alliances with sectoral partners, aimed to facilitate commercialisation and market development.
- The IPR protection strategy has been outlined.
- The assessment of operating costs and the pricing policy have been refined.
- Different opportunities have been identified, in particular the possibility to transfer the TripOD solution to other markets beyond transport, such as tourism or retail.
The next steps are the following:
- consolidate and extend the existing alliances with data providers and sectoral partners,
- conduct a more extensive performance demonstration in different operational contexts,
- mobilise market uptake on a broader scale.
To implement these actions, additional funding will be searched from a combination of public and private funding sources.
