The proposed system utilizes an existinglocal area network (LAN) infrastructure to train a machine learning (ML) model to predict and mapthe locations of an asset, such as a university shuttle.

offered CENG 4097 Civil Engineering Research credit (3 semestercredits for each student), counting as one of their three required Civil Engineering electives. Thismodel proved successful and has been used ever since. That is, students are incentivized withacademic credit for their work and they are mentored by an engineering faculty member. Thisresulted in a publication presented at the Frontiers in Education Conference in 2013 which is co-sponsored by IEEE and ASEE. This project also led to LEED becoming a permanent part of theCENG 4380/EVEG 4380 (Civil and Environmental Engineering Senior Design Capstone) courseever since, emphasizing the ABET requirement for sustainability in both of these engineeringmajors.Also, approximately 50 civil
