1 GTMA TransData Expo/ USDOT Data Palooza 2014 June 3-4, 2014 Plenary Session 8:00-10:15 a.m. Welcome & Opening Remarks Secretary Anthony Foxx is building on his experience as Mayor to promote a national, intermodal transportation system. Building on the framework of MAP-21, Secretary Foxx seeks to break down modal and programmatic barriers to create a strong connection between policy and people. Whether it is moving freight from manufacturer to market or linking rails to roadways and buses; a smart, connected transportation system is within our grasp. Integrated transportation data combined with enhanced analytics create a more efficient and transparent system. Secretary Foxx will build on that vision to discuss how MAP- 21s performance, data and reporting opportunities are a key component in laying the foundation for a 21 st century transportation network. (Secretary Anthony Foxx) Larry Copeland, Transportation Reporter USA Today Plenary Panel Session: The Future Role of Data in Transportation There has never been more opportunities to use interrelated, credible, and, reliable data to inform transportation decisions. What drives the decisions being made relative to the future of data in transportation? Where will it lead? This session provides insights from various U.S. DOT operating administrations and research leaders on this exciting and challenging front. USA Today s transportation reporter, Larry Copeland will facilitate the discussion.
