Urban Insights’ transportation-focused big data and
predictive analytics consulting and services practice, announced today, helps the
industry improve operations, reduce costs and better serve travelers. Today’s
urban transportation networks generate large amounts of operational data and
information from systems and a vast number of sensors. However, unlocking the
hidden insights using today’s standard reporting tools and methods is a
challenge. Urban Insights empowers transportation organizations to gather any
kind of data from wherever it resides, combine it with other relevant sources,
unlock the insights contained within, and then act on them. Urban Insights is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Cubic Transportation Systems, a
global leader in intelligent transportation solutions that serves 38 million
people every day and processes $18 billion in transportation revenue each year.
