BENEFITS OF SEMANTIC DATA MODELS A STUDY IN THE...

For more than 20 years  supply chains have been optimized using electronic data interchange
based on the EDIFACT standard. In 2010  the EU Commission launched a digital agenda to optimize
public administration processes through uniform and cross-border regulations. Ongoing
globalization and increased environmental awareness are creating increasing demands for the
transport industry  such as shifting transport from road to rail. Several projects are focusing
on the semantic standardization of data exchange based on web technologies  in order to
optimize system interaction between all players of the transport supply chain. This study
investigates whether using a semantic reference data model instead of a proprietary data model
fosters the intensity of possible interactions of data exchange systems in the European goods
transport industry. Drivers  benefits  challenges  and success factors for collaborative data
exchange are identified. The research in this study bases its solutions on the system
interaction theory  performs a literature review  and collects primary data. Six
representatives of important players of the European goods transport industry are interviewed
and surveyed
