Transit ITS Seminar
The National Transit Institute is hosting a Transit ITS Seminar on March 4-5 in Salt Lake City, Utah. This introductory-level seminar is geared for transit professionals, which include planners, engineers, operators, and individuals employed by MPOs, DOTs, and transportation agencies that will be involved in the planning, implementation, and ongoing management of transit data. The goal of the workshop is to discuss and discover best practices in data management for transit ridership and for open source data, for internal agency consumption and external partner usage. See the link below for more information.
UPDATE: The seminar in Salt Lake City has been cancelled due to not having enough participants.
