Want to join our Data and Technology PoC activities?
If you are not an airline, participation to the Data and Technology PoC activities require joining our Strategic Partnership Program.
Member Airlines, along with IATA Data and Strategic Partners, collaborate to identify key focus areas for PoC use cases development. This process helps address industry challenges and explore potential solutions that drive meaningful impact.
To ensure steady progress, we hold three in-person meetings per year, where members convene to develop the PoCs and technology position papers. Each meeting requires the attendance of the same primary representative from each participating organization.
Between these meetings, IATA facilitates touchpoint calls to ensure continuous progress on PoC use cases.
The 2024 Data and Technology PoC program focused on three key topics:
- Project Industry Large Language Model (LLM): This use case explores the applicability of LLMs in the cargo acceptance process, serving as a stepping stone towards further leveraging LLMs for regulatory compliance across the airline industry. Access the code repository.
- Project 777: This business to business (B2B) use case addresses critical challenges in identity management and fraud prevention in the travel industry. By leveraging digital employee ID, it provides both travel agents and airlines with a robust digital identity framework that enhances security while streamlining operational processes.
- Project 321: This business to customer (B2C) focused initiative enhances the customer experience by enabling secure and seamless access to airline lounges leveraging digital identity credentials.
