Transportation engineering
involves the collection of huge amount of data for performing all types of
traffic and transportation studies. The analysis is carried out based on the
collected and observed data. The statistical aspects are also an important
element in transportation engineering specifically traffic engineering.
Statistics facilitates to resolve how much data will be obligatory, as well as
what consequential inferences can confidently be finished based on that
observed and collected data. Generally statistics is required whenever it is
not possible to directly measure all of the values required. |

This course defines statistics for the transportation engineering applications of probability and
statistics in traffic engineering problems have markedly increased during the past two decades. These techniques are helpful in the study of vehicular traffic. The present course discusses in detail the procedures that have been found useful in treatment of several types of problems encountered
by the traffic engineers and it forms the basis of courses in statistics. It lays foundation necessary to understand the basics of statistical applications in Transportation engineering and other branches of civil engineering. |
