MINT — GERMANY
Transparent and Trusted Data Exchange of Passenger Buses in Germany
Allowing multi-stakeholder data management and onboarding of new ecosystem partners to deliver on sustainability and reliability in mobility.
Why trust matters in multi-stakeholder mobility.
Multi-stakeholder projects face a fundamental problem: trust. When multiple entities — private mobility operators and municipalities — engage in data-driven decision-making, verifying the integrity of telemetry data becomes critical.
With Staex's trusted IoT connectivity and network management, MIBO's 150-bus fleet, Solana's infrastructure, U2U's platform designed to support verified data and real-world applications, DIMO's platform for AI modeling of vehicle data, iris's components to automate passenger counting and video security in public transit vehicles, and support from Open Telekom Cloud, a tamper-proof data environment is established that offers transparency and trust between all stakeholders.
Data is directly signed by the vehicle — ensuring authenticity from the source
Metadata such as passenger count and CO₂ values are stored in a verified, immutable ledger — preventing manipulation or loss of data
Automated verification — reducing manual work and eliminating reliance on centralized systems
Data Integrity
Immutable and verifiable records
Security
Protection against cyber threats and unauthorized modifications
Transparency
Inherent trust among all stakeholders, including municipalities, fleet operators, and regulators
