To ensure environmentally compatible travel in the future, society must adapt both its technology and behaviour, increasingly embracing electric mobility and public transport. This transition is not only about adopting new transport technologies but also about choosing optimal transport modes, offering services tailored to users and coordinating with existing and future infrastructure. Support from industry and legislation is also essential to make this transformation possible..
The MoDa project draws on the German Aerospace Center's (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) extensive data resources and models to develop new services that help accelerate the shift toward more sustainable mobility. To effectively drive forward the mobility transition, these services must be practical, user-friendly and tailored to the specific needs of businesses and public institutions. A key element in developing scientifically robust methods and tools is taking advantage of cross-institute expertise within DLR.
As part of MoDa's services, precise and relevant research knowledge is generated to deliver insights and applications for key stakeholders such as local authorities, the federal government, businesses and the general public. These services cover a broad range of issues in the transport sector and are developed in close cooperation with potential users, including transport authorities, municipalities and power grid operators.
