TCA News
Industry associations can now gain national insights into sector-wide vehicle movements, thanks to the introduction of a new industry-led data sharing scheme announced by Transport Certification Australia (TCA).
The scheme allows industry associations and their members to gain valuable insights into the patterns of vehicle activities within their sectors, providing the groundwork for evidence-based advocacy for their members, or helping to improve safety or operational efficiency within their sector.
“This scheme is a potential game-changer,” said John Gordon, Austroads Manager of Strategic Engagement. “For many industries, this is the first time they’ll have access to aggregated, de-identified reports and analysis from vehicles in their own sector.”
The scheme uses the Road Infrastructure Management (RIM) application of the National Telematics Framework for collecting movement and location data, via TCA’s recognised service providers.
