For Topic 26-OS2, may Phase I applicants use synthetic freight datasets or simulated corridor conditions when live operational data is not yet available, provided the proposal documents assumptions, limitations, and a validation approach?

Phase I applicants may use synthetic freight datasets or simulated corridor conditions, and Phase I deliverables should demonstrate how the proposed predictive AI model is capable of integrating and analyzing "combined real-world and synthetic freight datasets". Note that applicants are not expected to integrate live operational data during the Phase I period of performance. The primary intent of Phase I is to test data interoperability and demonstrate the feasibility of a predictive model.
