DFHV Transportation Challenge
The University of Maryland Transportation Institute was judged by a panel of independent observers as the best presentation during the DFHV Transportation Challenge. The idea for
incenTrip is built on the objectives to reduce congestion, track and improve energy efficiency, and benefit the transportation ecosystem.
Assistant Research Professor Chenfeng Xiong and Software manager Eric Ji outlined how the program works to influence transit decisions by offering consumers something of value to produce public benefits, e.g., reduction of emissions.
Other presentations included an app for trip and fleet management; an information system to enable secure data exchange; and, a content distribution platform that tracks media engagement and mobile location to deliver hyper-local messaging to measure retail impact. Stay tuned as the results of this DFHV Transportation Challenge mean there will be more to come!
