In order to create a new data model is always interesting what others have done in order copy and to maintain interoperability.
That’s why we have available a database with all attributes and enumerations across all data models. 
Now it’s updated daily and the number of occurrences is also available.
We are testing a potential new format for the specification that
1) makes easier for people to read the specification
2) provides additional utility to be connected with other platforms making NGSI more compatible
Could you check these two new specifications Building, BuildingOperation compared with the old two Building, BuildingOperation and gives us your opinion?
(once in, click on the name of the object for deploying all the content)
[cf7form cf7key=”new-specification-format”]The actual new specs are here without viewer (building, building operation) what you see above is generated automatically from the yaml specs.
What’s the idea behind adopting yaml specifications? To allow multiple evolutions (automatic multilanguage spec, integration with other platforms, etc)
New data models for
available at its own repository in the Cross-sector domain.
Thanks to stbnrivas for its migration from previous project Synchronicity
Every day will be checked the documentation available for each data model and the result is dumped in the file documentationStatus.json
It would help a user to identify all the documentation, examples, schemas and specification available and it allows an automated use for any other purpose.
Check it out.
There is a new widget on the front page titled “Open PR and issues” there you can browse all the Pull requests contributed by the community and the open issues across all the data models.
Updated every 5 minutes
This way you can be informed about evolution going on and to make sure that all contributions are considered.
Although there are not data models coded yet (hopefully there will be new ones coming), just to let you know new subjects are.
– Battery inside the Cross Sector domain
– Green Energy inside the Smart energy domain
– Autonomous mobile robot inside de Smart robotics domain
If you are not a developer (But if you are you can also use it) we have created a page for being updated about the last news of your domain of interest

Thanks to Jaime Ventura, See here the issue comments but we will change the uVIndexMax attribute across different data model.
IUDX joins the steering board of Smart Data Models initiative. This agreement will allow FIWARE and the IUDX to collaborate on data models suitable for use in smart city applications. This work will be done in conjunction with the ongoing joint activity between TM Forum — an alliance of 850+ global companies working together to break down technology and cultural barriers between digital service providers, technology suppliers, consultancies and systems integrators — and FIWARE.
