A Trusted Platform for Transportation Data Sharing & Stakeholder Engagement

Information sharing to support critical transportation systems presents numerous challenges given the diversity of information sources and visual representations typically used to portray system performance and characteristics. This research project focused on advancing transportation data sharing and stakeholder engagement by adapting an information sharing and situational awareness technology platform developed as part of the Metropolitan Resilience Network, a unique public-private partnership. Dedicated platforms were developed for Seattle, El Paso, Newark and New York, all cities where C2SMART collaborating institutions are located. This effort was used to identify key issues and considerations in further applying the platform in support of C2SMART activities as well as observations on wider information sharing and stakeholder engagement in the transportation arena. Specifically, this project investigated the potential value of enhanced situational awareness and information sharing of live transportation data flows and other real time information about the operating environment of the four targeted cities. It also investigated the potential wider application and evolution of the platform currently utilized for this purpose in the metropolitan New York area.
