What is ISO 20077?
ISO 20077:2021 – Road vehicles — Extended vehicle (ExVe) methodology is a standard that defines a framework for managing vehicle-generated data, also known as ExVe (Extended Vehicle) data. It outlines the principles, structure, and functions needed to store, access, and share vehicle data beyond the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), without compromising on security or performance.
This standard acts as a foundation for other related standards like ISO 20078 (web services interface) and ISO 20080 (security), enabling a uniform and trusted data access ecosystem for third parties like insurance companies, fleet managers, garages, or application developers.
