Vision and Operational Concept for Enabling Advanced Traveler Information Systems (EnableATIS)

Enabling Advanced Traveler Information Systems (EnableATIS) is looking ahead to a future operational environment that will support and enable an advanced, transformational traveler information services framework. This future framework is envisioned to be enabled with a much more robust pool of real-time data through connected vehicles, public and private systems, and user-generated content. This Operational Concept does not seek to define specific future applications, but rather is formalizing a framework whereby multiple activities are envisioned to interact to support a diverse traveler information environment. Two operational scenarios are presented. One is a laissez-faire approach to an incremental build out and enhancement of traveler information services over time and with limited influence on the market from U.S. Department of Transportation. The second represents a desired end-state of a robust, multimodal, multi-source traveler information environment that leverages new data sources and generates transformative uses of that information to benefit travelers as well as system operations and management by agencies.
