A RESEARCH CENTER AT THE UNIV. OF MARYLAND, COLLEGE PARK

Summer Internships

We are looking for UNDERGRADS, GRADS, and FULL-TIME employees to conduct research using the latest in information technology. Students are given a great deal of responsibility and freedom to expand their engineering and computer science abilities while developing and integrating usable systems and tools for the lab.

News

The Center for Advanced Transportation Technology Laboratory (CATT Lab) was featured on CNN, NPR, and ABCNews.com for its role in providing situational awareness and transportation m anagement tools to FEMA DHS, the US Secret Service, the US Army, and numerous emergency operations centers throughout the National Capital Region.

3-Dimensional Traffic Data Spatial & Temporal Graphing

Principal Investigator(s): None
Current Researchers: George Sequeira,Jonathan Gilmour

Project Write-up:

Transportation data is inherently spatial in nature; however, most archived transportation data systems display transportation data in only a temporal format. The CATT Lab is investigating various techniques for returning and visualizing spatial transportation datasets. A map-based, historical transportation data is being developed along with other graphical, corridor based spatial data querying tools.
