DESCRIPTION:Andreas Georgiou\, Marina Sofokleous\, Christos Laoudias\, Aris
 totelis Savva\, Christos G. Panayiotou\n\nTo improve mobility\, enhance pu
 blic services\, and align with EU regulations\, the Ministry of Transport\
 , Communications\, and Works of Cyprus (MTCW) is introducing Intelligent T
 ransport Systems (ITS) across the island. In collaboration with the KIOS R
 esearch and Innovation Centre of Excellence at the University of Cyprus (K
 IOS CoE)\, the MTCW is planning the deployment of ITS using evidence-based
  scientific results produced by KIOS CoE and aggregated from existing lite
 rature.\nAs part of this initiative\, an integrated Geographical Informati
 on System (GIS)-based ecosystem\, called GNOSIS\, has been developed to st
 reamline mobility data collection\, analysis\, management\, and disseminat
 ion. GNOSIS integrates advanced GIS technologies to provide a user-friendl
 y platform for data-driven transport planning and decision-making. The eco
 system consists of three key components: a Desktop Application built on a 
 customized version of QGIS that offers several functionalities that enhanc
 e the everyday workflow of end-users in data management\, analysis\, and v
 isualization\; a Mobile Application designed to support data collection an
 d fieldwork that enables users to gather essential information in real-tim
 e and\; a Web Portal that provides remote access to visual data\, allowing
  users to view and interact with transport data from anywhere. These compo
 nents\, support the Cyprus National Access Point (CyNAP)\, facilitating th
 e easy exchange\, access\, and reuse of transport-related data.\nOne objec
 tive of this work is to showcase the GIS ecosystem developed for ITS and d
 emonstrate how open-source components can be effectively integrated to del
 iver a comprehensive and efficient solution for digital transformation and
  sustainability of mobility services. Another objective is to highlight th
 e role of such solutions in enhancing the productivity and accountability 
 of public services. Ultimately\, this initiative lays the foundation for t
 he Cyprus Transport Networks Digital Twin\, enabling more accurate simulat
 ions\, smarter infrastructure planning\, and improved transport efficiency
