Vianova, a French startup is building a data platform for shared mobility companies as well as local governments. The company acts as both a data repository and a data visualization dashboard. The mobility fleets all have some form of connectivity with a GPS chip and a cellular modem. Companies and local governments can use data to make those services more efficient and safer for people using them and everyone else living in these cities. Vianova tracks 1 million connected vehicles on its platform at the moment. Some companies use the platform to manage their fleet and make sure the vehicles are in the right spots at the right time. Policymakers and data scientists can also leverage this platform to discover some trends. It can be used to improve infrastructure, create slow-speed zones or parking areas through geofencing and more.
