The European Union currently offers two Open Data portals: the EU Open Data Portal and the European Data Portal. In order to create a central contact point for high-quality data within Europe, both portals are now to be transferred into the joint portal Data.Europa.EU. Fraunhofer FOKUS is developing its technological “heart”.

In the project WISSENsAllmende (KNOWLEDGECommons), the name says it all: An open urban data platform shall bundle the data of the city of Jena and make it accessible to everyone in the future- for more transparency, trust and participation. We support the city administration at the development of this platform based on our piveau® technology.

In the “Integrierte Software Berliner Jugendhilfe (ISBJ)” (Integrated Software for Berlin Youth Services) project, the Senate Department for Education, Youth and Family is digitising all business processes for youth services in the state of Berlin. A component-based and service-centred IT platform based on a service-oriented architecture (SOA) is implemented for the specialist IT procedures and IT services. The platform is continuously adapted and further developed.

The “Support Centre for Data Sharing” (SCDS) is a new initiative funded by the European Commission to further support the development of the Digital Single Market. The aim is to facilitate the exchange of data between private or public organisations and thus enable the broad use of data.

In the KameRAD project, a redundant sensor system for detecting an autonomously driving vehicle's environment in urban and agricultural environments was developed.

International Data Spaces (IDS) enable open data marketplaces for the economy and serve as blueprints for secure data ecosystems. International Data Spaces form the digital infrastructure for companies.

The Federation for Future Internet Research and Experimentation (Fed4FIRE) is an Integrating Project (IP) under the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) in the context of the Future Internet Research and Experimentation (FIRE) programme.

The project ROBUST develops a user-oriented early earthquake warning and response system that can detect earthquakes, immediately and automatically initiate measures to protect people, infrastructure and the economy, and can predict possible damage.

The aim of FLEXCoop is to introduce a fully automated demand response framework and a tool environment for private electricity generators and consumers.

In the context of the EU’s Horizon 2020 initiative, Triangulum will lead the way towards a smart and sustainable development in European cities.
