The IES Street & Area Lighting Conference is the only conference of its kind dedicated to improving the outdoor lighting business of electric utilities and energy service companies. We continue to provide an open forum for end-users facing the same questions regarding relevant products for specific application, lighting controls, benchmarks from other users in the lighting community, and milestones reached by municipalities, utilities and DOT’s. We strive to maintain a small community feel, creating a great opportunity to network with industry peers through seminars with speaker Q+A, breakout sessions to discuss issues in-depth, an exhibit hall and many networking events with speakers and peers in a comfortable and open atmosphere.
These sessions average 30 minutes each, do not feature the live Q&A, and are worth 0.5 CEUs each with one exception (the "Industry Updates session is 1.0 CEU, and an hour long). Upon watching a session in its entirety, a certificate of completion will be available for immediate download, this will not be emailed to you. You can also return to your My eLearning Dashboard at any time to retrieve copies of CEU certificates. Sessions are not available for individual purchase.
This keynote was presented as part of the 2020 IES Street and Area Lighting Conference.

Description: This session will take you through the design recommendations that are unique to pedestrian areas in parks, civic squares, along waterways, in plazas, restaurants, areas around sports fields, and sculpture gardens. Focal points, color, safety, visibility of others, consideration for critters, minimizing intrusive light and skyglow… all these issues are covered in a practical yet poetic way. The members of the committee will guide you through the recommendations, illustrative photos, and supportive tables.

Description: Advanced 4G and 5G networks serve both handsets and machine-to-machine communications for smart cities and the Internet of Things, creating a technology foundation for numerous services and products. Practical deployment of these networks requires dealing with political, social, economic, and regulatory hurdles that no previous technology has faced. This session will discuss the strategies and tactics used by the Wireless Communications Initiative, a program at the non-profit Joint Venture Silicon Valley dedicated to convening, facilitating trust and dialog, and educating regional stakeholders about wireless technologies and public policy.

Description: The development of lighting for pedestrians is critical for the implementation of outdoor and street lighting. In the past, efforts have focused primarily on crosswalk lighting, as crosswalks are typically where pedestrians and vehicles occupy the same space on the roadway. However, the sidewalk, non-crosswalk areas used to cross the road, and areas not connected to the road are also in need of lighting design guidelines. A recent research project has investigated these critical areas of the roadway. The results of this research and the developed guidelines will be presented.

Description: Data showing any safety effects in roadway lighting applications from substituting broad-spectrum LEDs for incumbent sodium or mercury vapor luminaires are limited. This presentation will discuss preliminary findings from a new PNNL study that includes observational analysis of roadway crash data, supplemented by field measurements and laboratory testing, investigating whether converting to LED roadway lighting suggests any discernible influence on driving safety. PNNL is partnering with the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission and Virginia Tech Transportation Institute on this project that includes more than 60 municipalities in the Philadelphia region.
