TRAFFIC SURVEILLANCE, MONITORING, AND MANAGEMENT

Ohio State University is the leader of the Traffic Surveillance, Monitoring, and Management Consortium. The University of Arizona at Tucson and George Mason University are the other members of the consortium. The overall goal of this consortium is to improve the efficiency of the transportation system at the national, state, and local levels by integrating remotely sensed traffic flow data obtained from airborne or satellite platforms and matching them with traditional data collected from ground-based sensors. The three application areas supported by the consortium are traffic monitoring, traffic management, and freight and intermodal transportation analysis. Nine projects have been selected at the three universities that focus on these topic areas during the first year. This conference presentation highlights the key issues being addressed in these nine projects.
