8	Exercise Ground Rules For today’s exercise, these items can’t be changed Evaluation criteria Data Environment assumptions Application concepts (no altering or adding new ones) Policy-related issues are NOT in play for discussion Intellectual Property, Privacy, Access/Security, Meta-data, Quality, Aggregation, Standards, Financial/Business Models…. If these topics come up, we will park the discussion until tomorrow, when we have special session to deal with these in turn
9	Today’s Exercise (Part 1) Scorecards Feedback materials provided in the breakout rooms Application scorecards 3 poker chips (for voting) Facilitators will brief assumptions about the data environment that applications can draw upon Facilitators will clarify application evaluation criteria Consider a set of (up to 12) IntelliDrive application concepts Facilitators provide one slide that describes the application Field questions and clarifying discussion Individually, you rate the application (HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW) against the criteria on your scorecard
10	Today’s Exercise (Part 2) Voting Once you have scored each application, each participant votes for the three most promising applications “Most promising”: strong potential for transformative impact, low deployment risk, and clear alignment with IntelliDrive program objectives BLUE = 3 points (top priority) RED = 2 points (second-highest priority) WHITE = 1 point (third-highest priority) Deposit your chips in the voting bins identified for each application (also turn in your scorecards) Quick break (5 minutes) to tabulate the results Reconvene to consider results within each breakout Discuss the implications of your group process Identify a presenter from your group for the breakout report at 3 PM

12	Candidate Applications Prioritization Criteria Prioritization Criteria Potential for transformative impact Makes use of IntelliDrive data Significant stakeholder interest Your input from this workshop is one measure of stakeholder interest We have conducted similar exercises with several stakeholder groups Can evolve from near-term state to long-term state Potential to be released as open source Cross-modal impact The program cannot fund every idea Exercises as a part of this workshop inform the federal team understanding of each application, but do not determine application priority
