February 1 afternoon sessions:

Urban Mobility - First and Last Mile - Last mile is a term used in supply chain management and transportation planning to describe the movement of people and goods from a transportation hub to a final destination in the home. In this workshop we consider the hub to be transporation points (train, bus, trucking, etc.) in a transit system and the first and last mile refers to moving people and goods to and from home, work, shopping, events and other destinations. We will focus on improved and affordable access to transporation points, accessability for disabled and in need, pollution reduction, advanced mobility, wellness, and livability - Co-Hosts - Wilf Pinfold, urban.systems & Skip Newberry, TAO

Sensors - Sensor Network Development Workshop - In this workshop, discussions will be led focusing on the project stages involved in developing a sensor network. These stages include designing and finalizing use cases for sensor data, selecting the appropriate sensor package for your use cases, privacy and community engagement processes, installation plans, data communication, and data management. Cities, counties, and other types of project teams will provide overviews of sensor deployment projects and lessons learned during any of the various project stages to help facilitate the development of sensor networks in new areas and improve existing projects. - Host Christine Kendrick, City of Portland
