Data and Digital Services Portfolio

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans)’s Division of Data and Digital Services (DDS) is a group of data analysts and scientists who analyze transportation data, such as General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) data, or data from funding programs such as the Active Transportation Program. Our goal is to transform messy and indecipherable original datasets into usable, customer-friendly products to better the transportation landscape.
