Leveraging the Potentials of Data Sharing
airport . The SkyTrain offers the most efficient connection between the airport terminals and a nearby long-distance train station , operated by a transport company and independent from the airport . The airport is responsible for operating the various train platforms where passengers enter and exit the SkyTrain . To gain insight into passenger volumes at the platforms , the airport collaborates closely with an analytics provider that specializes in passenger flow analysis . Additionally , while the SkyTrain represents the final leg of travel to the airport , travelers should have access to accurate timetable data in their preferred planning apps . To this end , the transport association responsible for managing and procuring timetable data for all public transportation in the region was identified as a key stakeholder .

Goal of the Testbed
Create a collaboration platform for the driverless passenger suspension railway system , which makes relevant data along the cross-organizational passenger transport process available to participating organizations .
Table 2-1 : Overview of the Transportation Testbed .
The testbed can be roughly divided into three phases : 1 ) Identification of the partner network , 2 ) Creating a concept for cooperation , 3 ) Further specify and implement the cooperative services . Each phase presents unique challenges and activities , outlined in Figure 2-1 .
This article focuses on activities in Phase Two , highlighted in blue . The resulting artefact marks a significant milestone in the transition from Phase Two into Phase Three , which will be further elaborated in the discussion below .
