TravTek Evaluation Orlando Test Network Study

摘要

The Orlando Test Network Study was one of a series of investigations conducted aspart of the TravTek operational test of an advanced traveler information and traffic management system (ATIS/ATMS). The TravTek system consisted of the Orlando Traffic Management Center (TMC), the TravTek vehicles, and the TravTek Information and Services Center. The TMC broadcast updated travel times for TravTek traffic links to the TravTek vehicles once each minute. The TravTek vehicles broadcast their link travel times back to the TMC for transmission to the other TravTek vehicles. The vehicles were equipped to provide route planning, route guidance, and a data based of local services and attractions. The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of alternative driver interfaces on driver performance, navigation performance, driver perception, driver preference, and willingness-to-pay.
