• Abstract:
  This report takes a multi-modal look at the “lay of the land” of the real-time traveler information market in the United States. This includes identification and characterization of the gaps in the domestic industry with respect to data coverage, data quality, data procurement methods, and data usage. Ultimately, the focus is to identify the gaps in real-time information across different modes (i.e., traffic, transit, parking, and intermodal/freight). The analysis also documents the institutional, technical, and cost issues associated with collecting real-time data from these modes; opportunities for closing the gaps; and utility of real-time data for uses beyond traveler information. Although each mode offers a unique set of challenges, an important objective of this study is to identify opportunities to best leverage resources and innovative approaches that span multiple modes.
