Journey Analytics uses big data technology and capability to produce comprehensive road performance metricsOur focus has been on:• Developing a data platform to integrate related

datasets to provide unique insights• Building capabilities to process and transform the

data (315 million unique records and growing)• Developing road and bus metrics that are

meaningful to people undertaking real journeys across the network

• Near-to-real time, spatially and over time• Trends, comprehensive, accessible

Building on Journey Analytics 1.0 – next steps• Journey Analytics 1.0 is currently an in-house tool for undertaking bespoke analysis

of the many transport performance questions perplexing road agencies today• Next stages of capability development include:

> Further data verification – anticipating real time data> Volume imputation to develop aggregate network metrics> Merging of public transport journey metrics, including on-time running and cost of

congestion to public transport> Identification of data use cases and real-life testing

• This development work will strengthen the robustness of the road performance metrics and any related analysis

• The scope for user-focussed development includes:> Focus on data interfaces including potentially a performance dashboard> Metric refinement – including accessing real-time origin-destination data> Incorporate incident data, opal card data> Understand people movement patterns across Sydney
