Better understand how the system is performing Identify where congestion (corridors, segments) is worst Identify where reliability (corridors, segments) is worst Understand system performance and change (intensity, duration, extent) Better understand where, when and how are people travelling Observe how is trip-making changing (with time series) Identify where to prioritize investments
More easily evaluate the impact of a policy/program/project/initiative Quantify the impact of incidents, events, changes
Identify where are conditions are not “normal” • Send response to reduce duration • Inform the public to consider alternative routes
Validate existing models Build models that are updated daily, with better samples Build predictive models
Evaluative (Measuring)
Operational (Responding)
