This webinar was sponsored by ITS Professional Capacity Building Program, ITS Joint Program Office, U.S. Department of Transportation
Webinar Description:
Supported by U.S. DOT, the Intelligent Transportation
Systems (ITS) ePrimer provides transportation professionals with fundamental
concepts and practices related to ITS technologies. Since its initial release
in 2013, this resource has been widely used by public and private agencies and
educational institutions. In 2020, the USDOT initiated an update to several ITS
ePrimer modules to keep up with the significant technological advances that
occurred in the ITS world. This free webinar includes presentations on the updated
Module 1: Introduction to ITS and the new Module 16:
Emerging Opportunities and Challenges.
Module 1- Introduction
to ITS will provide an introduction to ITS and an overview
of the ITS ePrimer content. The overview will look at the history and current status
of ITS applications and technology. A summary of the content presented in the
ITS ePrimer will be presented, including recently developed modules and
upcoming revisions to existing modules.
Module 16-Emerging
Opportunities and Challenges describes key "Fourth Industrial Revolution" (4IR)
technologies that are presenting new challenges and opportunities for the
transportation professional. With the nation's aggressive new efforts at the
start of the second decade of the 21st century to fix and rebuild its
infrastructure, transportation professionals have a truly unique opportunity to
leverage 4IR technologies to innovate smarter, more resilient, sustainable
transportation systems for the future.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the history and current status of ITS in the US
- Become familiar with the content of the ITS ePrimer
- Understand how rapid developments in data, computing, and telecommunications are changing fundamental assumptions in transportation demand, supply, and operational management and offering more efficient and effective ways to build and operate transportation systems; and
- Define ITS use cases for 4IR technologies so that transportation professionals can properly define, engineer, and implement intelligent transportation systems (ITS) programs and projects.
