TRB Webinar: Demanding data - Transactional data for demand-responsive transportation Often referred to as âon-demand services,â demand-responsive transportation (DRT) relies extensively on the development of transactional data specifications. TRB is hosting a webinar on Thursday, April 16, 2020, from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM ET that will explore how these data specifications may help facilitate interaction between software systems that manage DRT services in the United States. Presenters will discuss what specifications are needed and their possible benefits. The goal of transactional data specifications is to enable DRT services to more fully integrate among various mobility services. This webinar draws on research from TCRP Research Report 210: Development of Transactional Data Specification for Demand-Responsive Transportation. This webinar is sponsored by the Transit Cooperative Research Program. There is no fee to attend this webinar; however, sign into MyTRB.org to view registration information.
