Abstract:The vision of the Dynamic Mobility Applications program is to expedite the development, testing, commercialization, and deployment of innovative mobility applications, fully leveraging both new technologies and federal investment to transform transportation system management, maximize the productivity of the system, and enhance the accessibility of individuals within the system. The Dynamic Mobility Applications program is a multimodal initiative led by the Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office (ITS JPO) within the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA). The USDOT focuses on making surface transportation safer, smarter, and greener by leveraging wireless technology capabilities in an interoperable communications network environment to provide safety, mobility, and environmental benefits to the transportation community and the traveling public. Dynamic mobility applications capitalize on vehicle and infrastructure connectivity such as data from vehicle probes and other real-time data sources, using dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) and other wireless communications methods. The vision for dynamic mobility applications research is to provide significant improvements to mobility and accessibility by introducing innovative methods for operating existing transportation systems based on the availability of new data sources and communications methods, and by creating opportunities for greater integration across modes (e.g., light vehicles, transit vehicles, and heavy commercial vehicles).
