Traffic Operations Data Standards: Task ID 4085 (65A1019)

Abstract

Transportation data standards are an increasingly important and complex topic, as well as a key enabler of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). New data sources, private data providers, and uses for transportation data are exploding. The ability to harness data is at the core of modern efforts to improve the safety of our transportation system and advance mobility for the benefit of all. There is an increasing need for automated data exchange between public agencies and private organizations to improve existing operations and enable new products and services. In addition, the provision of public safety is another overlapping area where first responders require up-to-date and reliable information to succeed in theirmissions.
