Abstract:Data is becoming increasingly important for state Departments of Transportation (DOTs) in making strategic and day to- day decisions. This research offers a comprehensive review of both existing and emerging data sources for Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO). It discusses and summarizes the pros and cons of each data source. Additionally, interviews were conducted with federal and state DOT employees to gather their insights on future data sources and data needs, data integration and analysis, data archiving, sharing, security, and privacy, as well as stakeholders and workforce development. Based on the review and interview results, recommendations are provided regarding future data needs, emerging data sources, data processing and analytics, etc. The research also conducts three case studies to showcase the potential of using emerging data and AI technologies to address TSMO needs. These studies utilize advanced radar and thermal camera sensors, along with probe data, to model vehicle speed when approaching highway horizontal curves, examine how traffic signs may impact vehicle speed and lane-changing behaviors at highway work zones, and explore factors influencing speeding at highway horizontal curves and ramps. These studies demonstrate the benefits and necessity of combining data from different sources to meet TSMO needs and highlight the potential of AI.
