Improving Access and Management of Transit ITS Data

The objective of this research is to develop a common, practical approach to storing, accessing, and managing fixed-route transit ITS data.  This data management approach should address the following: (1) Current data sources, access, quality, and integration challenges; (2) Relationship between historical schedule data and ITS data; (3) Differing needs of transit agencies and other users of transit ITS data; (4) Optimal configuration allowing regular improvement and sharing across the industry; (5)  Exchange of reports, tools, and analytical techniques based on transit ITS data; and  (6)  Methods and procedures for developing operations management reporting and decision-support systems.
