NextGens Fireside Chat | Sydney with iMOVE and UTS
20 October 2022
6.00pm - 8:30pm
UTS, Building 11, Level 6, CB11.06.408 FEIT Seminar Room, Sydney, 2000
Join the ITS Australia NextGens, in collaboration with iMove and University of Technology Sydney for a fireside chat style event on all things Data, Transport and Information.
The event panellists shall provide insight into current projects and initiatives they are involved with open discussion across the room, complimented with light catering. Please join us for an educational and collaborative discussion within the ITS industry. Our line-up of panellists includes:
Mat Hounsell, iMove PHD Student, UTS
Title: Using Big Data to improve public transport: from model-driven product-centric services to empirically driven customer-centricity
Project page Link - This PhD research project aims to assist Transdev, Transport for NSW, and other Australian public transport service providers improve the quality, operational efficiency, and farebox recovery ratios of their services. Using Australian and European case studies, this research will investigate world’s best practice in understanding how public transport services attract customers. The research will identify ways to shift transport planning, engineering, and analytics practice from a static product-centric approach, towards a continuous optimisation approach focused on satisficing (sufficiently satisfying) customer needs identified using empirical measurements of expressed preferences using Big Data while protecting the customer’s right to privacy.
Artur Grigorev, iMove PHD Student, UTS
Title: Modelling impact of traffic disruptions by using integrated Deep Learning and transport simulation
Project page Link - This PhD project will focus on the complex problem of predicting the impact of traffic disruptions in large cities using advanced artificial intelligence algorithms and evaluating the best response plan that traffic authorities can make by synergising traffic simulation modelling of various response scenarios.
Scott Aitken, Managing Director, Aimsun in Australia and New Zealand.
Title: How do we achieve Sydney’s 30 minute city?
Sydney aims to become a 30-minute city… everyone can get to any service or job easily and equitably. A 30-minute city is easy if you’re playing Sim City or planning a city from the (under) ground up. Few ‘Greenfield Cities’ have been developed in the past 100 years. So, what does it take to create a 30-minute city from an ITS and technology perspective? Where are the examples of how we make this happen?
Alex Humphry, ITS Engineer, Transurban & ITS Australia NextGen
Title:
Motorway Incident Detection with Input From Traffic Sensor Data Sources.
This initiative is focused on the performance of computer vision Automatic Incident Detection (AID) systems in tunnel environments and the use of traffic monitoring and detection systems in the improvement of overall system performance.
