Project 18.4
Purchasing Data from Vendors of Connected Vehicle (CV) Data

One of the aspects of connected vehicles (CV) that is widely used is public agencies purchasing vendor provided CV data, either as individual vehicle data or aggregated data (e.g., average speeds).

The CV Pooled Fund Study (PFS) completed a Model CV Data Architecture document in March 2023 that outlines use cases and examples of Infrastructure Owner Operators purchasing and using CV data.

Vendor provided CV data can benefit operations (e.g., speed data), planning activities (e.g., origin-destination tables), and maintenance performance measures (e.g., friction data, speed data).

North/West Passage members have varying levels of experience procuring vendor data and could benefit from sharing their experiences.

The purpose of this project is to share experiences procuring CV data from vendors and/or aggregation services.
