Development of Human Factors Guidelines for Advanced Traveler Information Systemsand Commercial Vehicle Operations. ATIS and CVO Development Objectives and Performance Requirements

摘要

This working paper documents Task B of the present project, Identify AdvancedTraveler Information Systems (ATIS) and Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO) System Objectives and Performance Requirements. The goal of Task B is to define the transportation community's current conceptualization of ATIS and CVO, providing a baseline of information for subsequent tasks. Information was obtained from a literature review, conducted as the first task of the project, and by interviewing and surveying government and private representatives of the ATIS and CVO development community. The results of this report have supported subsequent project tasks by: (1) Providing basic information regarding the range of operational capabilities to be included in ATIS and CVO systems for use in the more specific definition of system functions and features during the conduct of Task C, Define Functions; (2) Providing a survey of ATIS and CVO systems currently developed, or under development, in support of Task D, Comparable Systems Analysis; (3) Providing a preliminary set of ATIS and CVO scenarios that can be further elaborated during the conduct of Task E, Task Analysis; and (4) Providing a summary of performance requirements currently identified by the transportation community for subsequent incorporation in project research. (Tasks H, K, and M).
