In the data world of the automotive sector, Atos maintains the AGORA data marketplace integrated into the i3-MARKET backplane.
AGORA brings data supply and demand together and provides the possibility of efficient matchmaking through an open and brand-independent platform.
It acts as a marketplace operator between original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and Cross-sectorial Service Providers through a harmonised Common Vehicle Information Model (CVIM) that removes all brand-dependent data formats, thereby unlocking the potential of vehicle data.
The volume of data in AGORA amounts to around 4,000,000 data-packages indexed from bill of materials (BOMs) coming from at least three different manufacturers: Volkswagen, Renault and Fiat.
Automation in generating metadata descriptions about the parts included in the extensive list of BOMs.
Expansion of marketplace’s functionality, increasing robustness, integrating security and privacy protection and improving scalability.
Advancement of smart contracting between parties involved in the data value chain (from vehicle’s owners to car manufacturers).
With i3-MARKET’s implementation, AGORA has:
Increased by 20% in vehicle owners offering data to service providers.
Reduced by 10% the running vehicle time.
Increased by 30% in the volume of data and contracts managed by owned marketplace.
The additional positive collateral effects?
Environmental protection
Efficient forecast and management of traffic jams
The i3-Market project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under grant agreement no. 871754.
