DOT Studio
Leveraging advanced technology for a safe and sustainable transportation future
The Studio is tackling two acute challenges in partnership with the NYC DOT. The first addresses safety by helping improve the NYC DOT’s pavement marking condition analysis and maintenance operations for the City’s 6,300 miles of streets and highways by identifying more automated, systemic, and data-driven approaches. The second relates to NYC’s sustainability and transportation electrification strategy by scaling solutions that enable efficient and affordable public electric vehicle (EV) charging options for New Yorkers.
