TRANSPORT DATA COLLECTION, MODELING AND SIMULATION TO SUPPORT  SUCCESSFUL SMART CITIES AND COMMUNITIES

About the events

Following the success of the previous editions of both the International Symposia of Transport Simulation (ISTS) and the International Workshop on Traffic Data Collection and its Standardisation (IWTDCS), ISTS'14 and IWTCDS'14 aim to gather the world's transportation and traffic academics and practitioners, as well as people who are interested in contributing to or gaining a deeper understanding of the transport simulation field.

During the three-day conference plenary sessions featuring high level speakers and interactive breakout sessions will take place at the Conference Centre of Ajaccio (Corsica, France), where participants will have the opportunity to mingle with those at the forefront of data collection and standardisation, Transport simulation thought, practice, and implementation as well as exchange experience and best practices. This event will focus on scientific challenges and issues raised by new theoretical development in the ttransport fields as well as new advances in Mobility Data collection and smart processing tools.

The organiser

The ISTS'14 and IWTCDS'14 is organised by the Transport and Traffic Engineering Laboratory (LICIT), a joint Research Lab. of ENTPE (the Post-graduate School of Civil Engineering & Sustainable Development) and IFSTTAR (a state-financed Research Institute in the areas of Transportation, Urban and Civil Engineering, Construction Materials and Natural Hazards).  

Established in 1993, the LICIT is recognized for its work in traffic modelling and engineering. The laboratory has already developed many successful applications for a real-time traffic information, network monitoring & management (including weather-sensitive traffic management), traffic simulation and dynamic assessment of the environmental impacts of transportation systems.  For more information, please visit the Lab's website.
