The team plans to engage stakeholders and collaborative labs to develop and issue the community call to all mobility labs in the US and around the world. The community call will specify a set of mobility metrics to be submitted along with a set of information that describes the data and the techniques used. A specific due date will be identified in the call by which participating labs shall submit their results to the PI team. Upon receiving the submissions from many labs around the world, the PI team will conduct a meta-analysis of the submissions. The results of the meta-analysis will be presented to all participating labs in a virtual meeting, also attended by the stakeholders. The culminating event of the research project is an in-person whole-community workshop to be held at the University of Washington involving all participating labs and stakeholders. This whole-community workshop has two important purposes: 1) to report back the findings of this community-coordinated effort and formulate (with all participating labs and stakeholders) recommendations for the research community and for the stakeholders (policymakers); and 2) to develop a result dissemination mechanism involving all participating labs and stakeholders. Planned dissemination methods include: manuscripts, white papers, short essays for non-technical audiences, and policy briefs, and short videos.
We expect to release the community call in late 2022 or early 2023. Please check back.
