Webinar: How Mobile Data Is Transforming Public Safety Analysis

Urban SDK
November 16, 2023

This webinar shares how public organizations are reporting, and also forecasting, incidents and hot spots by using mobile and connected vehicle data.

The past year has seen large drops in VMT due to the global pandemic. Unfortunately, safety numbers have not followed suit, with NHTSA reporting increases in total fatalities and deaths per miles traveled — including a 13% increase in total fatalities in Q3 of 2020.

Today's decision makers need more reliable sources in order to combat reckless driving and make roads safer. Data from mobile sensor technology from autos, commercial fleets, and smartphones from vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists, and public transit riders provide insight with better accuracy. 

Covered in this webinar on public safety

• How jurisdictions are using mobile data to reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads

• Case studies on forecasting incidents, reducing clearance times, and improving traffic flow

• How big data informs decision-making around staffing and infrastructure planning

• What transportation experts say about new data gathering techniques
