ITS Strategic Plan – Research Questions & Framework
  • Are applications available and benefits validated?


  • What is the minimum infrastructure needed for the greatest benefit? How much, where, when and what type?


  • What is the degree of market penetration required for effectiveness?


  • Is technology stable, reliable, secure, and interoperable?


  • Are international standards available to ensure interoperability?


  • What policies/governance/funding are required for sustainability?


  • How to address public concerns for privacy and ensure that applications do not cause driver distraction?
6
ITS Strategic Plan – Principles for All Research
  • Define Go / No Go decisions at all major milestones prior to commitment of additional funds
  • Assess expected costs & benefits at all major milestones
  • Ensure driver distraction is addressed in research design
  • Evaluation & technology transfer is part of research design
  • Conduct stakeholder engagement throughout program’s life
  • Written Charters & Program Management Plans will define activities & ITS JPO / modal responsibilities

ITS Strategic Plan – Multi-Modal Research Framework
10
ITS Strategic Plan – Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) Communications for Safety
    • Purpose
      • To accelerate the implementation of next generation of safety improvements through the widespread deployment of V2V - equipped vehicles of all types (truck, transit, auto & fleets)
    • Objectives
      • Reach NHTSA regulatory decision by 2013
      • Accelerate in-vehicle technology to ensure value to the first V2V vehicles
11
 
12
ITS Strategic Plan – Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) Communications for Safety
    • Purpose
      • To accelerate the implementation of the next generation of safety improvements through deployment of a nationwide suite of V2I - equipped vehicles (truck, transit, auto & fleets) capable of communicating effectively with relevant infrastructure systems
    • Objectives
      • Infrastructure policy guidance / regulation
      • Develop policy guidance/regulation for DSRC in signals
      • Develop Signal Phase & Timing (SPaT) as initial capability
13
 
14
ITS Strategic Plan – Real-Time Data Capture and Management
  • Purpose
    • To accelerate the implementation of the next generation of transportation system improvements by providing real-time, cross-modal (bus, rail, parking, roadway) information in all 50 states that will improve energy conservation, traveler information, safety, and reduce congestion
  • Objective
    • Develop data environments & conduct cross-modal demonstrations to show value of ubiquitous real-time multi-modal information
15
ITS Strategic Plan – Dynamic Mobility Applications
  • Purpose
    • To improve transportation mobility by providing travelers and transportation system operators with real-time, dynamic, cross-modal decision-making capabilities through access to a nationwide suite of applications based on improved collection and processing of real-time data, supplemented by improved communications between vehicles (transit, truck, auto and fleets) and infrastructure
  • Objectives
    • Develop applications for public sector managers; infrastructure policy guidance/regulation
    • Migrate to future technologies
    • Identification of data needs
16
ITS Strategic Plan – Road Weather Management
  • Purpose
    • To facilitate and improve the value of road weather information provided by both public and private sector weather communities to all transportation users and operators through robust data assimilation, quality checking and effective dissemination
  • Objective
    • Applications for public sector managers and more robust data for the weather enterprise
17
ITS Strategic Plan – Applications for the Environment: Real-Time Information Synthesis (AERIS)
    • Purpose
      • To generate/acquire environmentally-relevant real-time transportation data, use this data to create actionable information to support and facilitate “green” transportation choices, and assist system users and operators with “green” transportation alternatives or options
    • Objective
      • Applications for the public good
18
ITS Strategic Plan – Human Factors
    • Purpose
      • To eliminate distractions related to ITS devices as a contributing factor to crashes.  Achieve this by evaluating driver distraction issues while leveraging the convergent findings of epidemiological studies, experimental studies, and analyses of crash data
    • Objective
      • Minimize distraction and workload
19

20
ITS Strategic Plan – Technology Underpinning
  • IntelliDrive Test Environment
    • Objective: Create a common resource for public and private sector multi-modal testing
  • Harmonization of International Standards and Architecture
    • Objective: Develop internationally harmonized standards, particularly around vehicle-based applications
  • IntelliDrive Certification
    • Objective: Establish a technology & application certification approach, particularly for active safety applications
21
