Data for curb management: how to get it and how to use it
(WP2)
Location: White Stag Building - White Stag Building Room 152
Pre-Registration Required (Open)
The simultaneous explosion of new services needing access to the curb, and new technologies offering a view of what's happening at the curb, mean that cities have more options--and obligations--than ever before to use technology to actively manage their curb space. Hear from leading cities and technology providers about how they use data to manage and access curb space, and how they envision the development of this nascent field as services and data points multiply.
CE Credits for APA, AIA, and ASLA, should be available for many sessions and workshops. More information on this will be available shortly.
