Workshop on Integration of Transportation, Statistics and Big Data

July 21- 22, 2017, Dresden, Germany

The scientific aim of the workshop „Integration of Transportion, Statistics and Big Data” is the consolidation of the complementary fields statistics, economic sciences and traffic sciences.
In both, traffic and economic sciences, extensive data are measured and recorded continuously. At the same time modern traffic systems are in a constant need of current data to work efficiently. Different academic fields have to cooperate to develop appropriate analytical methods. These are in particular statistics, economic sciences and traffic sciences. The common interface Big Data facilitates to adapt and combine different scientific methods.
