Alonso

Dr. Francisco Alonso, Director of INTRAS, has been interviewed by Cadena Ser for their program La Ventana Comunidad Valenciana, on January 24, 2025.

Dr. Alonso spoke about the ITS DS4M Mediterranean: Data Space for Mobility project, led by INTRAS, which aims to digitize mobility in the Mediterranean Corridor and is funded by the Ministry for Digital Transformation and Public Service.

According to Alonso, “in mobility there is a lot of data, for example, how people move, where, what that mobility produces from the point of view of emissions, but all that data is not integrated in a single place and from the point of view of planning policy it is very important to collect that data. Data that comes from very different sources”.

This platform will contribute to better planning of public transport, to try to reduce travel times, to reduce the impact on the environment that we develop with our trips, etc....

This project will also involve the participation of other research centers of the University of Valencia, such as the IRTIC (Institute of Robotics and Information and Communication Technologies).
