Transportation planners and modelers demand accurate and robust tools to conduct their everyday work. These tools require analytics and visualization based on a Big Data foundation.
Traditionally, transportation managers have owned the data gathering systems that provide them with the information they need to keep things flowing, but in the last few years, the types and numbers of data sources have increased exponentially and ownership has shifted. We still have the systems that belong to infrastructure operators; however, now, we also can add data derived by private companies such as TomTom.
Transportation planners are now turning to customized tool sets that can be used for traffic analyses, forecasts and GIS-based data management. PTV Group, a TomTom partner, is a leading provider of these in-demand tools. PTV Visum consistently models all road users and their interactions and has become a recognized standard in the field of transport planning. Transportation experts use PTV Visum to model transport networks and travel demand, to analyse expected traffic flows, to plan public transport services and to develop advanced transport strategies and solutions.
In this webinar we will examine
- How big data is collected, validated and managed
- Tools for working with big data
- Case study applications: travel time analysis.
You will learn how PTV Group and TomTom are setting the standard for data analytics.
