  1. NCRST - Flows Joel L. Morrison, Ph.D. The Ohio State University September 10, 2002 Berlin, Germany

  2. NCRST Program • National Consortia for Remote Sensing in Transportation • Four University Consortia • Flows – The Ohio State University • Infrastructure – University of California at Santa Barbara • Environment – Mississippi State University • Hazards – University of New Mexico • Four year program began March 2000

  3. NCRST - F • The Flows Consortium consists of: • The Ohio State University • The University of Arizona • George Mason University • Managed by a Leadership Team • External Board of Advisors • Web site www.ncrst.org/ncrst-f

  4. NCRST - F • Three topical areas in transportation flows research • Traffic Monitoring • Traffic Management • Intermodal Freight Activities • First two years we funded 8-9 research projects each year. Several were two year projects • Hold at least one workshop per year

  5. Research Examples Years 1 & 2 • Truck rest area availability and utilization • Freight and intermodal flow analysis • Traffic management: sensor and platform issues • Hyperspectral imagery in traffic flow analyses • Near real-time network state estimation for traffic management and planning

  6. NCRST - F • On behalf of DOT/RSPA we monitor annual projects in a companion program that funds private corporations • Year 1 – Technology Services Corporation • Year 1 – Bridgewater State University • Year 1 – Veridian ERIM - Tucson • Year 2 – Terra Metrics • Year 2 – Grafton Technologies • Year 2 – GeoData Systems

  7. Examples of TAP projects • UAVs for traffic planning and monitoring • Airport planning and expansion • Clearing stream channels in areas of emergent vegetative growth • Road citing and relocation planning

  8. NCRST - F • Year 3 research program has the following thrusts, with emphasis on implementations with demonstrated results • Improved AADT/VMT estimations • Easy automated flow extractions • Remote sensing traffic laboratory • Creation of a traffic image infostructure • Traffic monitoring for emergencies

  9. NCRST - F • Year 3 Workshops • Joint Flows/ ITS Workshop in July in Washington DC • International Flows Workshop in September in Budapest Hungary • Planning for a joint Flows/ Infrastructure Workshops in Hyderabad India and New Delhi India in January 2003
