This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will promote progress in data science to support smart transportation systems. The funding of $317,374 over 3 years, starting on October 1, 2024, will establish a theoretical framework for quantifying the value of data from various sources in a transportation network.

The project aims to: 1) quantify how changes in data affect estimates of network performance metrics to identify important data and its spatial/temporal variation; 2) model data acquisition and develop optimization models to prescribe the best data acquisition plan; and 3) validate the methods using real-world and synthetic data through three case studies. The research findings will directly benefit society by facilitating effective utilization of transportation data and leading to more sustainable and efficient transportation systems. The project also includes curriculum development on these novel concepts to better prepare the next generation of transportation professionals.
