CIVL5704: Transport Analytics
2025 unit information
This unit of study uses a hands-on, data-driven approach to exploring foundational concepts in transport. Students will develop skills to convert data into information for decision making including data ingestion, data description, visualisation, error analysis, and basic modelling. The data science skills will be taught using Python notebooks. The students will use an integrated approach, drawing on perspectives from multiple disciplines and exercising their judgement regarding social, environmental and economic sustainability. Mastery of the concepts will be demonstrated through submitted technical analysis as well as clear written, graphical and oral communication.
