Vehicles have been reporting telematics data back to their manufacturers on a continuous basis for several years. This data— potentially everything from vehicle speed, and traffic congestion, to whether seatbelts are latched, or windshield wipers are on—is collected, anonymized, and made available for purchase to certain entities.

Through an enterprise-level contract with leading data providers and partnerships with Texas Universities, TxDOT is responsibly acquiring the data and launching studies and efforts to produce tools based on modeling and artificial intelligence. The goal is to equip TxDOT with real-time roadway conditions to enable quicker, more effective issue identification, response, and future planning.
