Internal collaboration with our research side creating a consolidated database with all things transportation. Site WILL help senators and the general public access information related to Unitrans arrival/departure/late times, parking lot usage, most active spin scooter locations/times, and more. Includes API endpoints+public documentation so other students and ASUCD can use internally. 

Working with UCDPD and Saferide services, IRL is planning a survey to gauge student experiences with Saferide. In conjunction with data collected from the new saferide app, IRL is analyzing pain points for saferide and strategizing data-driven ways to improve the service.

IRL is working with the California Aggie on a survey project to analyze readership trends with the goal of improving engagement with our campus newspaper. We are conducting analysis and presenting this project next week. 

IRL is working with units, committees, and commissions across ASUCD to deliver a comprehensive staff satisfaction survey to evaluate employee needs and provide better services to student workers as a student association. 

Working with Unitrans, EPI,  DOTS, ITS, Campus Planning, Capitol Corridor, Yolo County Transit District, and SPIN bike, IRL research is working on a state of the art transportation database and yearly report. We are analyzing public/private transportation, micromobility, and greater connections to regional planning/goals for transportation in Davis. This project will better connect transportation data in Davis, and provide an opportunity for better transportation planning, resulting in an interactive website.
