Project: FirstDIG (2003-2004)
The FirstDIG project was a collaboration between First plc and the National e-Science Centre, as represented by EPCC. The project deployed an early implementation of the OGSA Data Access and Integration (OGSA-DAI) services within the First South Yorkshire bus operational environment. The project had two central goals. The first was to demonstrate the deployment of OGSA-DAI services in a commercial environment. The second goal was to answer specific business questions through a short data mining analysis of OGSA-DAI service-enabled data sources. The business questions were posed by First plc.
