Abstract In support of USDOT’s Intelligent Transportation Systems’ (ITS) Mobility Program, the Dynamic Mobility Applications (DMA) program seeks to create applications that fully leverage frequently collected and rapidly disseminated multi-source data gathered from connected travelers, vehicles and infrastructure to increase efficiency and improve individual mobility while reducing negative environmental impacts and safety risks. There are three Integrated Dynamic Transit Operations (IDTO) applications: Connection Protection (T-CONNECT); Dynamic Transit Operations (T-DISP); and Dynamic Ridesharing (D-RIDE). The T-CONNECT application will provide transit users and riders the means to ensure successful transit transfers. T-DISP will allow travelers to make real-time trip requests through personal mobile devices. D-RIDE will identify and accept potential ridesharing opportunities along a given travel route. This report provides a review of relevant past and ongoing research and also provides a definition and vision for the IDTO applications, currently available technologies, methodologies, and existing practices. Also described is a summary and synthesis of findings, potential impacts of IDTO implementation from an institutional, operational and technical perspective, and next steps. This research forms the basis for the current state definition within the Concept of Operations (ConOps).
