6th DATEX II Virtual User Forums 2020/2021
Theme:
DATEX II at the Heart of Connectivity
With Version 3, DATEX II is now at the heart of connectivity, supporting the digitalisation of road traffic and travel information. Next to important updates implemented for national road operators and service providers, DATEX II has broadened its focus to the domains of urban mobility, electromobility charging infrastructure, logistics, electronic traffic regulations and cooperative, connected and automated mobility. Both the Webinar Series and the concluding DATEX II PSA webinar in June will reflect these themes and topics in both the management, functional and technical streams.
For the first webinar day on the 25th of November, the 6th DATEX II Forum will open its online doors to all system users, software developers, information architects, ITS consultants as well as policy and decision-makers interested in DATEX II. For the remaining four webinar days, two to three webinar talks will be organised on a Wednesday morning every 6 weeks from January 2021 until the concluding webinar in June of 2021.

What about the physical Forum you normally organise?
COVID-19 is affecting all of our lives. It impacts our private and work-life in an unprecedented way. No one can tell at the moment how things will evolve and what restrictions for conventions, traveling and social distancing will stay in place until when. This uncertainty affects of course also the set-up of this year’s DATEX II Forum. As our main goal for the Forum has always been to bring the DATEX II community together to exchange experiences, we prefer to organise a physical Forum in Paris. However, your health and safety must come first.
As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, DATEX II will organise its 6th DATEX II Forum in a slightly different setting: A webinar series will start on the original scheduled first day of the 2020 DATEX II Forum, November 25th of 2020. The webinar series will end with a concluding webinar on June 9th! This setup enables us to share with you the tremendous progress and interesting new capabilities of DATEX II already this year and to bring together the DATEX II community.
