Overview

Data are fundamental to transport decision making. This unit applies rigorous probabilistic and statistical techniques to the analysis of data commonly encountered in transport studies. You will develop an understanding of probabilistic and statistical analysis procedures and their application to analysis of univariate and multivariate data, the model development process and its application to range of modelling techniques employed in the analysis of transport data.
