Alissa and Eric standing at the lectern
@awalkerinla.bsky.social and Eric Plosky take some Qs and give some As about how we can change the culture to encourage transit ridership for LAβs upcoming megaevents. #DataAndDonuts #MobilityData #TorchedLA #LosAngeles #Data #Olympics #Metro #Tech #Technology
Eric, our speaker, in front of a lectern, speaking, with his presentation slide behind him reading: "So what?" How to measure impact: very difficult! β’ It's always been hard to measure these things: proxy measures β’ Data may be proprietary (e.g., consumers) β’ Our current KPis # of datasets, members, geography, etc.) β’ More ambitious: β’ Additional measures for take-up of standards & tools - Increased transit/other ridership-related numbers β’ Market for hardware, software, services β’ "Social policy" (as hard as ever) - "New stuff"?
Eric Plosky, our speaker for the day, asks the difficult, important questions.
βSO WHAT?β

Eric, at the lectern, with this slide presentation behind: Who needs to be involved? β’ Data producers, creating information about systems and services: transport agencies, one-van shuttles, consultants generating data for operators (and, soon, Al-based data synthesizers?) β’ Data consumers, providing the interface to users: startups, sector-specific orgs., data producers themselves, or tech companies β’ Users: travelers - and operators/managers - and potential users β’ Developers coming up with new stuff: new features within specs... and new systems and services using data and standards
Eric: βa standard that doesnβt work for everyone is.. not a standard!β
