Data Sensing & Analytics Committee

Purpose

To develop a roadmap and serve as a forum for the exchange of ideas and knowledge among researchers and engineers from academia, industry, and government with interest in the development of sensing systems and data analytics methods applied to smart and connected infrastructure, and transportation systems. The committee will provide a forum for transportation professionals, infrastructure owners and operators, industry, academia, consultants, and the federal government to discuss today's and tomorrow's needs in sensing data and information systems related to transportation issues. It will serve as a platform for its members, and the research, development, services, applications, and standardization communities to collaborate and investigate solutions and methodologies for the sciences and technologies of sensors data processing, analysis, analytics, integration, retrieval, and networking. Exchanges include conferences, workshops, special sessions in conferences, and publications to promote active discussions on relevant, existing, and emerging applications, in addition to technical challenges, potential benefits, research needs, and implementation needs.
