Approaches to the Data Governance in Transportation Domain - Data Quality Rules Design and an Example of Traffic Data Inspection

The paper focuses on the practical application of procedures for the design and creation of a complex system of data quality rules in transportation domain. The aim of the research was to verify the feasibility of implementing all relevant practices of the data governance concept for the specific needs of transportation data and to present possible ways of quality evaluation of these data. The paper describes the proposed requirements, tools and methodology for developing a complex approach to data governance and data quality evaluations. The functionality and benefits of the proposed procedures and their real implementation have been verified by applying the procedures on real data from selected profiles of the D11 motorway in the Czech Republic from the year 2023. The discussed results demonstrate the functionality of the proposed solution and allow for future large-scale application of the verified procedure across the full geographic coverage of the data. It is also possible to apply the procedures and rules to other data sources or data from other types of roads including urban traffic.
