Professor Baher Abdulhai (CivE) is helping people share information about traffic within a city by being part of the development of a Facebook-like platform called On-Line Network-Enabled Intelligent Transportation Systems (ONE-ITS).
ONE-ITS is a software platform and a national research society, including several other universities. It connects commuters, police, government officials and researchers at universities, helping them share information about traffic on their way to their destinations. The platform is geared at those interested in traffic research and, much like Facebook, is open to anyone who wants to join. It is focused on professionals who can share their expertise and share data about transportation and research.

“If there’s a problem on the freeway, people can know about it,” Abdulhai said.
