In recent years, North/West Passage (NWP) members have increasingly explored connected vehicles within their agencies, and this has been a topic discussed among NWP members. One aspect of connected vehicles (CV) is public transportation agencies purchasing vendor-provided CV data. The data provided could be individual vehicle data or aggregated data depending on the need of the agency. The CV data provided can be beneficial to transportation operations, for example, by providing speed data, for planning activities to provide origin and destination data, and for maintenance performance measures by providing friction data or speed data.
The NWP member states have varying levels of experience procuring data from vendors. The purpose of this project was to share experiences procuring CV data from vendors and/or aggregation services and to explore the potential for corridor-wide procurement of CV data.
