PacTrans Technology Transfer Success Story 2015 #6: We are here to Help: Enhancing Public Support for Wireless MAC Address Sensing in Transport Data Collection Short Educational Film – COMPLETED!
In January we posted all of the success story projects that PacTrans gave additional funding for technology transfer.
Success Story #6 involved leveraging current data collection efforts to obtain more complete travel demand information, and introducing new methods that have the potential to reduce cost and improve the quality and coverage of transportation data.
