JULIA
The Julia Project aims to enhance the global Public Transport sector by leveraging the unique capabilities of European Global Navigation Satellite Systems (EGNSS) and COPERNICUS data.
The Julia Project aims to enhance the global Public Transport sector by leveraging the unique capabilities of European Global Navigation Satellite Systems (EGNSS) and COPERNICUS data. The objectives seek to reduce long lead times in the public transport market while advancing climate action and urban mobility.
Public transport is challenged with delays and disruptions that make journeys unpredictable. Furthermore, increasing demand for sustainable and safe urban mobility solutions like micro-mobility or autonomous shuttles requires integrating advanced technologies to ensure effective management and operation.
To address these challenges, The Julia Project uses EGNSS data that allow for smoother operations and enhanced efficiency, and Copernicus data to assist cities develop innovative solutions towards cleaner, more sustainable mobility strategies.
Within its 3 years duration, the project is expected to create an Observatory of use cases and develop Ten applications aimed at improving public transport systems. The Julia Project, involving 14 partners, can serve as an example for other municipalities/regions demonstrating how EGNSS/COPERNICUS could revolutionise worldwide passenger transportation and urban mobility.
