    The ISTDM 2020 aims to gather transportation researchers and practitioners across the globe for exploring the frontiers of big data, modeling and simulation to advance transportation research to support the connected, cooperative and automated mobility. With a greater focus on emerging technologies, ISTDM 2020 rebrands the two long-standing transportation symposia: International Symposium of Transport Simulation (ISTS), and the International Workshop on Traffic Data Collection and its Standardization (IWTDCS). During the three-day conference, plenary sessions featuring renowned speakers and interactive breakout sessions will take place at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, United States.

     

    Further information about the conference, topics of interest, and the important dates can be found below, as well as the attached flyer.

     

    We look forward to seeing you in Ann Arbor at ISTDM2020!
