Research exploitation in the industry
Outputs from EPSRC funded research include WebCOMIS and the AVTUNE noise model. The WebCOMIS has been implemented as a demonstrator in the Medway Towns and negotiations are taking place with SERCO (funded by Medway Towns) to integrate the congestion algorithms as an API nested in their own proprietary software. The Noise model has been developed with funding from Europe in collaboration with the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute and currently entering discussions on how the software will be licensed given that the Leeds City Council have provided funds to beta test the software to map noise across the whole of West Yorkshire. (This should be confirmed by the due date for the RAE)
