Professor Dablanc will present some of the recent issues and research findings from her team, including some recent European Union funded projects she participated in.

Steve Raney gave a presentation on “Fair Value Commuting”, a comprehensive five-part solution to reducing single occupant vehicle (SOV) commuting from 75% to 50% in the Bay Area.

In this presentation, researchers described a decision support system capable of capturing 2D imagery and producing 3D models suitable for a range of post-natural disaster analyses.

This presentation discussed highlights of several recent studies of commercial vehicle parking issues in Downtown Toronto.
