We are looking for a diverse group of developers, planners, futurists, big data lovers and problem solvers and even those simply interested in checking things out and learning about big data to help address Virginia’s greatest transportation needs through the use of open data sets including VDOT’s SmarterRoads data portal. Your expertise is the key.
