Distribution of Data

Easy access to open source data can provide a huge productivity advantage to travel entities. A web based direct distribution platform offering functionalities comparable to that of legacy systems and customizable to individual requirements is a key component for corporations and travel management companies to lower costs and investments.

Travel companies are demanding open source data integration that can be scaled up to enterprise use. They don’t want complex, and expensive data products that are not a compatible with the application environment. With a large market need, the future of data distribution is sure to have a large open source component.

Integration of data available from the Travel and Tourism Foundation and from third-party global partners networks will allow for the development of an ecosystem network where supplier-members of any size will be able to build their own custom applications to economically distribute their products, inventory or negotiated rates.

A distribution solution through the Travel and Tourism Foundation ensures neutral data ownership not tied to any third party or distribution company.
