Federated Unified Services advancing next generation data Exchange for CCAM
Research Project, 2026
– 2029
The future of Cooperative, Connected, and Automated Mobility (CCAM) is data-driven, yet the current landscape remains fragmented, costly, and insufficient to support the full data lifecycle. FUSE4CCAM addresses these challenges by delivering the CCAM Data Exchange Platform (CCAM-DEP): a federated, sustainable, and sovereign environment that interlinks existing and emerging initiatives including FAME, SYNERGIES, EONA-X, and EMDS guaranteeing a proven technology framework while avoiding duplication. Crucially, the project consortium comprises the foundational architects and coordinators responsible for these key previous results, ensuring the direct integration of mature assets to build the FUSE4CCAM solution while avoiding duplication.
FUSE4CCAM advances CCAM data interoperability by further harmonising taxonomies, ontologies, and interfaces in line with FAIR and SIMPL principles. Starting from ecosystem assets controlled by the partners, the project introduces important technological innovations, such as AI-based methodologies for seeking membership and automating data connectivity. This addresses requirements far beyond generic data spaces, tackling persistent barriers like real-time data streaming gaps and the need for high-quality datasets for AI training and validation.
Crucially, the project establishes a governance and federated certification framework built upon a leveled trust concept. This relies on strong cooperation with National Access Points (NAPs) and the NAPCORE project, providing compliance and certification services under the control of national bodies to ensure transparency and regulatory confidence. By delivering a strong CCAM dataspace brand, targeted business-uptake actions, and representative, stakeholder-driven use cases, FUSE4CCAM demonstrates concrete value creation, ensuring the platform evolves from a research infrastructure into a self-sustaining European asset for sovereign, data-driven mobility.
