This is Datex II
Datex II is a European standard and is used to deliver traffic information from the Swedish Transport Administration to different external service providers. Traffic information is delivered in XML format.
Datex II is based on the UML (Unified Modeling Language) and used to graphically visualize the data model. Datex II standard is specified as XML schemas. These were created in a tool that users can download from www.datex2.eu or use the web tool.
Datex II organization not only supports DATEX II users and maintains the standard, but also monitors and supports the expansion of Datex II on the European level. A Deployment Guideline has been developed which aims to make the use easier.
The Datex II organization has been established to maintain and develop the specifications to the benefit of all users and stakeholders. The governing body is the Datex II European Study and Expert Group as part of the EasyWay consortium.
