Contextualized transportation insights for smarter streets

Traffic patterns will likely be in a state of flux for years to come as we deal with the wake of the pandemic. Lockdowns, less commuter traffic and the rise of e-commerce have left transportation planners making major adjustments to manage these drastic shifts in commercial transportation.

Discover why planners will require insight and context into not only traffic volumes, but how and why goods move in order to better plan for future transportation infrastructure and regulations to support these changes.

  • Key pandemic-driven trends that have transformed commercial vehicle movement.
  • How data-driven decision making can help transportation planners now and moving forward.
  • How near real-time transportation analytics are helping to visualize and understand the large influx of commercial parking events.

 

What’s inside

“In the unpredictable post-pandemic environment, static systems that only collect traffic information in set locations are inadequate for monitoring, planning and managing commercial door-to-door parking. Leaders need versatile, scalable solutions to gather vital data on how commercial traffic patterns are changing.”

RSG and Prologis: Making smarter transportation infrastructure decisions with a data-driven approach

RSG used Altitude by Geotab’s aggregated mobility data to help Prologis understand and improve their supply chain logistics in California’s Central Valley. The study revealed that most heavy truck trips originated from eastern areas, challenging previous assumptions and leading to a revised plan for infrastructure improvements, including interchange placement and EV charging stations. By integrating Altitude data into their travel model, RSG provided Prologis with insights to address key questions about infrastructure investments and optimization. This data-driven approach resulted in heightened government awareness, accelerated infrastructure project timelines, and enhanced supply chain efficiency. Ultimately, Altitude by Geotab enabled Prologis to make more informed site selection and infrastructure decisions to foster smoother and more sustainable supply chains.

Outlining the Path Toward Trucking Electrification

Every day, trucks travel across the United States, delivering goods that keep our communities running. It’s easy to overlook the scale of this operation, but consider this: these vehicles move 13 billion tons of freight annually, worth $14 trillion. As we strive for a more sustainable future, how can we transform this essential sector? Altitude by Geotab’s aggregated mobility data offers a powerful lens to explore the potential of trucking electrification.
