PURPOSE

NHAI proposes to set up a COE at IIT Delhi for highway data management systems which will focus on advance analytics, modelling, simulations and predictions based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) on- project management work flows & alerts; possible litigations & disputes; traffic & tolling revenue growth; road safety & better incident management and other such issues decided by NHAI & IIT, using huge data from NHAI Data Lake.

OBJECTIVITIES AND SCOPE

The proposed CoE at IIT Delhi will focus its activities to meet the following objectives:

•To assist NHAI on advance analytics based on AI and ML on identified thrust areas

•To assist NHAI prepare simulation models on identified thrust areas

•To assist NHAI enhance data storage and retrieval capacities

•To enable NHAI toward data-driven decision making

Based on the current data availability at NHAI the COE will focus on the following thrust areas. Thrust areas may be revised in consultation with the COE advisory committee.

THRUST AREAS

•Network Traffic Demand and Incident Management

•Highway Safety

•Highway Workzone Management

•Highway Pavement Management System

•Project Management

•Data Management and Machine Learning
