Overview
This webinar highlights the TSMO activities at Joint ITE International and Midwestern/Great Lakes Districts Annual Meeting and Exhibit. The conference has many TSM&O elements, all of which are important to advancing this program. Not only will the ITE TSM&O Council be discussing and advancing key programs like smart communities, improving TSM&O workforce, and advancing CV/AV, but will also be setting direction on the Council for the next few years. Along with the Council activities, there are numerous opportunities to learn from experts in these areas at the Annual Meeting. The webinar will introduce the role of smart infrastructure, as well as the modeling & programming processes necessary to advance & sustain these activities.
