Story that dates back to 2010
2010: Yeri Tiete received a Cease & Desist from NMBS/SNCB

● Consists of virtual trails left behind, similar to the exhaust from a vehicle, a byproduct that reveals the trail it has taken.
● Tells good stories about habits and preferences.
● The reuse of open data sets often generates more insights and even unexpected policy advice...
