Presentation
Vianova is THE data platform that facilitates the integration and management of new mobility services in the public space. But, what does this mean exactly? Simply put, it allows better collaboration between cities and mobility operators (bikes, scooters, car-sharing, ride-hailing, autonomous shuttles, robot-taxis, etc.), a bit like a matchmaker 😉 but with neutral and secure data based on open-source standards. Vianova has already been adopted by more than 50 cities and operators worldwide 🌎
With aggregated data, cities can monitor mobility fleet compliance in real time (without turning into Big Brother 👀) and thus better understand their impacts on transportation networks as well as roadways.
Vianova is aiming high: to make streets more pleasant, green and accessible for all, by creating the control tower of connected mobility 🚀
