Data from maintenance management systems is extremely valuable and a large amount of effort is invested in collecting it. State departments of transportation maintenance budgets can be more than a billion dollars. Managing the quality of this data is very important as it is used for planning, making business decisions, and reporting on these expenditures. This webinar will explore experiences, challenges, and solutions from North Carolina (NCDOT), Minnesota (MnDOT), and New York (NYSDOT) in optimizing data quality within their maintenance management systems.
Roadway operations technology organizations are aligning towards a collaborative national approach to transform connectivity and create a national roadway network digital infrastructure layer. This webinar will explore the status and nature of this evolving strategy, and its context for Roadway Operations Data Exchanges (RODx) and platforms to enable vehicle-roadway connectivity.
Agencies are seeking cost-effective, sustainable solutions to rebuild national roadway infrastructure without compromising performance. Cold In-place recycling (CIR) and Cold Central Plant Recycling (CCPR) are two sustainable, low-carbon approaches to rehabilitating and building asphalt pavements that are seeing an increased use. This webinar will provide an overview of the state of the practice with CIR and CCPR of asphalt mixtures.
Climate change is creating huge impacts to infrastructure worldwide. Identifying adaptation measures to prevent damage to roads, culverts, and pavements is a priority. This webinar will provide proven methods of culvert design to minimize damage from climate-related major storms, including the concept of stream simulation.
Global positioning system (GPS) data, virtual reality (VR), games, and digital twin models are some of the latest technologies for understanding evacuation behaviors and regional resilience. These emerging data sources and methods can offer enhanced insight and confidence in decision making. This webinar will feature how these technologies are utilized as unique automated ways to understand both the transient evacuation behaviors during natural hazards and long-term resilience needs.
Virtual public involvement creates new possibilities for two-way communication, in real time, with fewer barriers, and offers innovative ways to reach riders, engage advocates, and shape policy. This webinar will dive into effective virtual public engagement strategies tested by both transit agencies and community organizations.
State agencies have an abundance of external data available but limited experience with utilization of this data for maintenance and operation decision making. This webinar will explore how state agencies are utilizing external data sources for maintenance decision making.
