The Project Data You Need, Simplified.

Viva partners with transportation agencies to help them evolve from commissioning isolated traffic studies to building a unified, city-wide data asset. In many organizations, data collection is still undertaken on a project-by-project basis: a grant application requires supporting evidence, a corridor redesign needs baseline counts, or a safety concern prompts a temporary study. While these efforts often answer the immediate question effectively, the resulting data frequently remains trapped in individual reports, spreadsheets, and consultant deliverables. Once the project is complete, the information is rarely revisited or integrated into future decision-making.

This approach creates inefficiencies and missed opportunities. Agencies repeatedly procure new studies to answer similar questions, collect overlapping datasets, and struggle to establish a consistent evidence base across departments. Valuable institutional knowledge is lost over time, making it difficult to compare outcomes, demonstrate long-term trends, or build confidence in investment decisions.

Our approach is different. We work with agencies to establish a flexible sensor network that can support multiple use cases from a single deployment. The same data used to inform strategic planning can strengthen grant applications, guide detailed design, support operational decision-making, and provide robust before-and-after monitoring once projects have been delivered. Permanent sensors create continuity and a growing understanding of the network, while temporary deployments can be layered in where additional detail is needed, ensuring agencies collect the right data at the right time without having to start from scratch.

All information flows into a single platform, accessible through dashboards and APIs. This enables standardized reporting, improves collaboration across teams, and preserves institutional memory as staff and priorities evolve. By treating traffic data as critical infrastructure rather than a series of disconnected studies, agencies create a repeatable, grant-compliant evidence base that compounds in value over time. The result is stronger funding applications, more effective safety interventions, improved performance management, and a deeper understanding of how people move through the transport network.
