AMASCOT: DEMONSTRATING TECHNOLOGY FOR AUTOMATING COLLECTION OF MILEAGE-BY-JURISDICTION DATA FROM COMMERCIAL VEHICLE FUEL TAX AND REGISTRATION FEE APPORTIONMENT
This paper summarizes an ITS operational test project investigating an application of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) to Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO). The U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has undertaken efforts to develop and implement ITS in the U.S. The goals for ITS are to enhance transportation safety and efficiency and reduce the need for new highway construction. ITS applications range from metropolitan traffic management to automated toll collection to commercial vehicle operations. The Automated Mileage and Stateline Operational Test (AMASCOT) was conducted by a partnership that included the Iowa Department of Transportation; Rockwell International Corp.; Rand McNally-TDM, Inc.; Center for Transportation Research and Education; Minnesota Department of Public Safety; the Wisconsin Department of Transportation; the Western Highway Institute/ATA Foundation; the ATA-affiliated state trucking associations in Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin; and the Federal Highway Administration.
