CEN DATEX II Revises Parking Publication Based on APDS Standard
June 10, 2022
​​
Alexandria, Virginia - The Alliance for Parking Data Standards is thrilled to announce that the CEN Technical Committee has revised its DATEX II Parking Publication based on the APDS data model. DATEX II is a multi-part Standard, maintained by CEN Technical Committee 278, Road Transport and Traffic Telematics.
The CEN Technical Committee 278 addresses Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and is responsible for the standardization of the DATEX II data model. CEN/TC278, through National Standards Bodies’ consultation and balloting, adopts new DATEX II standards or modifies existing standards.
This week, CEN approved the update to the Parking Publication, with a positive vote from AFNOR (Association française de normalization (NF). AFNOR is an association governed by the law of 1901, consisting of nearly 2500 member companies. Its aim is to lead and coordinate the standards development process and to promote the application of those standards. This announcement highlights once again the position of APDS as the global parking data standard.
