A MULTI-MEDIA EXPERT SYSTEM FOR INTERSECTION AND ROADWAY ACCESS DESIGN
The "Road-Chek" system addresses the limitations of the current design process by utilizing an easy-to-use rule-based decision support system, which is integrated with reference manuals, CAD drawings, photo-logs, etc. The system enables local decision makers to easily conduct a comprehensive state-of-the-art design review of existing or proposed highway access intersections. The system was developed using a combination of Delphi, an object-oriented visual programming language and Flexpert, a rule-based shell and inference engine developed at the Computer-Based Intelligent Technology (CBIT) Laboratory at Utah State University. The system easily incorporates multi-media features such as pictures, video, sound, and maps with "touch" buttons. The system runs under Microsoft Windows on common 486 computers although sound and high-resolution features may require additional components.
