Urban Data Space Platform: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

The Urban Data Space Platform (UDSP) is a modular data platform for cities, municipalities and regions from HYPERTEGRITY AG of Büren, Germany. It is assembled from open-source components around the FIWARE framework and, according to the vendor, follows DIN SPEC 91357. The platform connects data sources through standard interfaces (including NGSI-LD, MQTT and WMS/WFS), with Node-RED for integrations, a permission and role system, visualisation with Grafana, Apache Superset and Masterportal, plus an open data portal and API management. The vendor develops and operates the platform as a service or managed service.

HYPERTEGRITY AG is headquartered in Germany; no owner or parent company is disclosed. The source code is released under the EUPL 1.2, and the platform is cloud-agnostic: the customer chooses a certified hosting partner or hosts it themselves. No data centre location is stated, so ask the vendor where your data will reside. The open licence and self-hosting option limit dependence on a single supplier or cloud.
