Congratulations are due to the Digital Roads Research Team who were announced as winners of the Engineers in Society award in the category of Digital Futures at the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) Excellence and Innovation Awards 2024 held in The Library of Birmingham on Thursday, 4 December 2024.
The Engineers in Society Award: Digital Futures Team Award recognises teams of engineers who have demonstrated effective teamwork that has led to a societal benefit. The award looks at how the team works together towards generating a positive societal impact, and how they have approached and overcome obstacles through inclusive and collaborative working. Applications are open to teams of Engineers from around the globe.
The Award reflects the work carried out by the Digital Roads research team in the development of the CAM Dataset, how they collaborated and worked together to resolve the challenges associated with building the dataset, which has set the baseline and established the benchmark for the project for the Digital Roads project.
The work covered by the award will be published as a paper in an upcoming edition of Advanced Engineering Informatics. The dataset is available here.
