Two new candidate data models are now available in the Smart Data Models Candidates repository, covering role-based context for logistics locations and drivers, translated from the SIMPLE project’s extensions to the FEDeRATED Logistic Roles ontology.
Driver represents a person driving a vehicle, referenced directly by the sibling Business Service candidate’s TransportService entity. LocationRole captures the role a physical location plays in a specific transport context — port of loading, place of delivery, gate-in location, and 15 other role types — tied to the transport means and event it relates to.
These models are grounded in the ontology published at vocab.plataformasimple.es, which itself republishes the FEDeRATED project’s Logistic Roles taxonomy in full alongside SIMPLE’s own additions.
