  1. Surface Transportation and Atmospheric Observation Integrating the ITS Infostructure and Environmental Observation Paul Pisano, FHWA HOTO-1 Road Weather Management Program Tel: 202 366 1301, email: paul.pisano@fhwa.dot.gov November, 2001

  2. National ITS Infostructure • Goals • Support FHWA goals: including national security and all-weather military mobilization • Adequate surveillance to support all Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) functions • National Highway System coverage at minimum • Objectives • Definitive requirements for large investment • Mobilize all partners • An open system • An integrated system

  3. An open system • Coordinated standards and architecture • An integrated system • Allocation among platforms • Common assimilation, distribution, archiving Environmental Observation Transportation Surveillance National Weather Service and Others: Satellite, surface, radar observations Many Local Agencies and Information Services “Road Weather” Observation

  4. CCTV and Infrared for Visibility and Road condition Transportation Role in Environmental Sensing Differential GPS: Integrated Water Vapor Fixed Environmental Sensor Station Mobile Pavement Temperature, Chemical

  6. Actions Needed • Coordination within transportation • Open system: ITS and ESS standard • Data ownership, liability issues • Coordination with meteorological community • Efforts for integrated observing system under the Office of the Federal Coordinator for Meteorology (OFCM) • Requirements research • Better guidance for 5-10 year investment program (transportation and other platforms)
