Florida DOT Orlando ITS World Congress Vehicle Awareness Device

Florida DOT (FDOT) installed Vehicle Awareness Devices (VADs) on a set of Lynx transit buses as part of a demonstration for the ITS World Congress held in Orlando in October 2011. These VADs recorded vehicle data during the World Congress and continue to operate after the World Congress. Periodically the VADs are removed from the vehicles and the data files are retrieved. FHWA Has confirmed that the data do not contain identification of individual transit operators or any other forms for Personally Identifiable Information (PII).

This legacy dataset was created before data.transportation.gov and is only currently available via the attached file(s). Please contact the dataset owner if there is a need for users to work with this data using the data.transportation.gov analysis features (online viewing, API, graphing, etc.) and the USDOT will consider modifying the dataset to fully integrate in data.transportation.gov.
