A demonstration
of the pilot project on parking availability within Pittsburgh’s Cultural
District was showcased at the 18th ITS World Conference in Orlando
Florida. The deliberation centered on the project’s unique characteristics that
include the collaborative efforts of funders, academia, nonprofit and
for-profit entities that were involved in the project, the environment in which
the product was deployed and the richness of the data from which the prediction
model and the robust evaluation strategy drew upon. Preliminary results from
the evaluation and next steps to be taken for a full project implementation
were also discussed.
