Data may be the new oil but that's only because it's pretty useless unless it's extracted and refined, and like oil it can also cause unintended issues. ITS Australia are working with members to better understand the transport data ecosystem and work to harmonise data sharing to improve outcomes for our networks, communities and industry.
The National Transport Data Community of Practice (NTD-CoP) is established to foster collaboration and shared query into the potential opportunities and challenges transport data analytics offers our industry and community.
The transport data ecosystem is complex and only getting more complex each day. New vehicles, after market devices, privacy and security issues, consumer preference, expanding use cases only scratch the surface.
The Australian Traffic & Traveller Information Forum (ATTIF) is focused on the development of advanced traffic and traveller information services in Australia.
