Workshop:
Navigating the rising TIDES—Exploring the present and future of transit data standards
Featuring
TIDES (Transit ITS Data Exchange Specification) is a new, open standard to access and manage data generated by transit technology systems. It is currently managed by MobilityData, the nonprofit that oversees general transit feed specification. This workshop will demonstrate current TIDES implementations; crowdsource innovative uses of TIDES data, including National Transit Database reporting and performance dashboards; and collaboratively explore opportunities to extend TIDES to new data sources and new use cases for industry and research.
Workshop agenda
The workshop will provide an opportunity to learn about TIDES and how it is being used, and it will engage participants in brainstorming about the future of TIDES: how to extend the standard and expand its use.
- Part 1: Introduction to TIDES and the importance of transit data standards
- Part 2: Panel presentations on how TIDES is being used in the transit industry, today and in the future
- Part 3: Breakout discussions and brainstorming to advance TIDES
