Massive amounts of digital data are being generated from a variety of sources including sensors, devices and online activities, with estimates that the total "digital universe" will grow to 44 zettabytes by 2020. This data holds potential value when combined from different sources to provide new insights but also risks around privacy if used without appropriate protections. Transport authorities will need to evaluate how new and existing data sources can help improve operations, planning and safety while ensuring regulations keep pace with changing data practices.

The International Transport Forum at the OECD is an intergovernmental organisation with 54 member
countries. It acts as a think tank for transport policy and organises the Annual Summit of transport
ministers. ITF is the only global body that covers all transport modes.
ITF works for transport policies that improve peoples’ lives. Our mission is to foster a deeper understanding
of the role of transport in economic growth, environmental sustainability and social inclusion and to raise
the public profile of transport policy.
ITF organises global dialogue for better transport. We act as a platform for discussion and pre-negotiation
of policy issues across all transport modes. We analyse trends, share knowledge and promote exchange
among transport decision makers and civil society.
