INTEGRATING DYNAMIC VEHICLE PROBE DATA INTO AN ADVANCED TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

摘要

While there are many challenges facing the transportation community with the realization of Vehicle Infrastructure Integration in the United States, one of the main questions of traffic managers is how this system will benefit daily operations. From a traffic management perspective, one of the primary advantages to a cooperative vehicle-highway system is the ability to utilize each individual vehicle as an intelligent probe. This paper will address recent Southwest Research Institute research surrounding the integration of dynamic vehicle probe data from a commercially available vehicle, using standardized message sets, directly into the framework of a currently deployed Advanced Traffic Management System.
