Southern Alberta ITE November Luncheon
Luncheon Topic:
Calgary Traffic Count System: CalTRACS
Overview
The role of the team in Transportation Data and Forecasting is to provide the best possible information to decision makers so that they can make evidence-based decisions regarding transportation issues. In order for transportation data to be useful for decision makers it must satisfy three criteria: it must be relevant, it must be collectable and it must be accessible. This presentation will demonstrate how the City of Calgary recently made transportation data much more accessible with the implementation of a web-based tool for accessing and retrieving traffic count data.
