What is DataMobility? Data is everywhere! Every day, our public transport networks generate over 100 million data points related to passengers, operations, maintenance, regions and more. 🚌💻 But data alone holds no value until it’s collected and leveraged effectively. That's where the DataMobility platform comes in — it's our initiative to unlock the full potential of data. We work closely with each network to develop strategic frameworks for data collection and implement robust organizational systems. At RATP Dev, our methodical and pragmatic DataMobility platform specializes in the entire data value chain: 📊 Automated collection: We gather raw data from various sources. 📊 Storage & Processing: We make data reliable and standardize them to facilitate utilization. This is done in compliance with data protection regulations. 📊 Utilization: We apply advanced algorithms and data science models to extract meaningful information. 📊 Decision-Enabling Insights: We transform data into actionable insights through tools, indicators, dashboards, and graphs, empowering informed decision-making. Each approach is customized to local contexts, integrating existing systems, addressing specific needs and leveraging the expertise of local teams.

What will mobility look like in the year 2050? We posed this question to young people in Johannesburg as part of our Youth Mobility Vision initiative. The insights from the participants were both inspiring and thought-provoking, highlighting the urgent need to tackle current challenges to build a better future: 📈 Inclusive growth: Everyone should have access to safe and reliable transport, highlighting the importance of social mobility. 🦺 Door-to-door security: Designing transport systems with a security-first approach is essential for the safety of all passengers. 👫 Reinforcing social bonds: Mobility should safeguard the various needs and interests of all stakeholders. 🌿 Bridging the rural-urban divide: Rural areas should enjoy the same infrastructures and connectivity as urban areas. 📱 Leveraging technology: Technology should be developed more but not fully replace human interaction. 📢 Participative design: Citizens want their voices heard throughout the design and creation of new transport services. June marks Youth Month in South Africa, a time to reflect on how we can build a better future for the generations to come. As part of this celebration, Nthabiseng Kubheka, CEO of our South African subsidiary, presented these insights at Africa Rail 2024. Her message resonates powerfully: “We dare not let our youth down, for the future will judge us, and harshly so.” #SouthAfrica #AfricaRail2024 #MobilityForAll #RATPDev
