  1. ITS Standards Program Strategic Plan SummaryJune 16, 2009Blake ChristiePrincipal Engineer, NoblisforSteve SillProject Manager, ITS Standards ProgramResearch and Innovative Technology AdministrationU.S. Department of Transportation

  2. Purpose • Obtain feedback from agencies about ITS Standards to help with the ITS Standards Program Strategic Planning effort

  3. ITS Standards Program Strategic Plan • Objectives of Strategic Plan • Define strategic objectives for ITS Standards Program at least through 2012 • Describe current ITS Standards Program activities • Describe future ITS Standards Program activities • Strategic objectives are based on ITS Program goals and objectives • Engage transportation community to help shape role of USDOT and verify how plan addresses stakeholder needs • Sections are based on objectives above

  4. Feedback • Would like feedback from state agencies • Focus is on ITS Standards • Series of open questions • Input will be provided to JPO

  5. Questions • What types of new ITS standards are needed to support the State DOT operational needs?

  6. Questions (continued) • Are there additional needs for existing ITS Standards that would help them meeting their operational goals?

  7. Questions (continued) • What role do you feel USDOT should play, what role state and local agencies should play, and what role private industry should play in the following ITS Standard lifecycle stages: • Development of ITS standards • Deployment of ITS Standards • Testing of ITS Standards • Maintenance of ITS Standards

  8. Questions (continued) • What are the problems you are facing, that USDOT should be aware of, regarding ITS Standards deployment?

  9. Questions (continued) • What are your interests and concerns regarding ITS Standards for IntelliDriveSM and how do you see IntelliDrive impacting your organizations?

  10. Thank you.

  12. Process Assess ITS Program Goals, Focus Areas, and Objectives Develop future program selection criteria Derive ITS Standards Program Strategic Objectives JPO and Coordinating Working Group Review of Criteria JPO and Coordinating Working Group Review of Strategic Objectives Develop draft ITS Standards Program Strategic Plan JPO and Coordinating Working Group Review of Criteria Survey on activities and roles for USDOT Final ITS Standards Program Strategic Plan

  13. Technical Approach: Establish Coordinating Working Group • Establish ITS Standards Strategic Plan Coordinating Working Group • From public and private sectors • From academia and associations • Representing focus areas of: • Vehicle connectivity • Environment and energy • Integrated payment • Institutional related polices and procedures • Real-time traffic • Purpose is to provide input on role of USDOT and feedback on objectives and activities

  14. Technical Approach: Strategic Objectives • Define Strategic Objectives for ITS Standards Program • Derived from ITS Program goals and objectives • Reviewed and approved by JPO • Feedback provided by Coordinating Working Group in face-to-face meeting

  15. Technical Approach: Future Program • Describe future ITS Standards Program activities • Based on ITS Standards Program strategic objectives • Describes future ITS Standards Program activities • Recommends USDOT role • Recommends levels of funding per life-cycle phase • Defines criteria for prioritizing funding and involvement by USDOT • JPO to Review and approve • Coordinating Working Group to provide inputs on USDOT role via survey, and feedback on criteria

  16. Technical Approach: Technical Scan Plan • Develop draft technical scanning plan to assess emerging technology • Involvement of emerging technology subject to prioritization criteria • New technology could affect changes in prioritization criteria • JPO to review and approve Technical Scan Plan

  17. Technical Approach: Develop Strategic Plan • Draft ITS Standards Program Strategic Plan: • Contains four sections • Reviewed and approved by JPO • Feedback provided by Coordinating Working Group • Feedback reviewed by JPO and draft updated • Final reviewed and approved by JPO

  18. Confirmation of Strategic Initiatives, Goals, and Objectives Strategic Initiative - Safety - Outcome: Significant reduction in crashes, injuries, fatalities and associated economic costs • Goal: Transformative Safety thru Vehicle and Infrastructure Connectivity • Objective: Enable active safety applications i.e., applications designed to assist vehicle operators avoid imminent crashes (low latency). • Objective: Improve safety by providing in-vehicle crash avoidance warnings (not low latency). • Objective: Perform necessary research & testing to enable potential safety regulations • Objective: Provide foundation for technologies to enable partial or full vehicle control. • Objective: Enable vehicle-based applications such that they achieve program objectives without negatively impacting driver focus • Objective: Harmonize standards and architecture internationally around the vehicle platform

  19. Confirmation of Strategic Initiatives, Goals, and Objectives Strategic Initiative - Mobility – Outcome: Significant improvements in mobility that result in more sustainable and livable communities • Goal: Capture complete real-time information on all roads and all modes to support transformational system performance • Objective: Capture real-time mobility data from vehicles • Objective: Capture real-time system cost information across modes (parking, transit, pricing, tolling, etc) • Objective: Integrate real-time mobility data from all sources for use in transportation management and performance improvement • Objective: Develop standards to foster the market for real-time data

  20. Confirmation of Strategic Initiatives, Goals, and Objectives Strategic Initiative - Mobility – Outcome: Significant improvements in mobility that result in more sustainable and livable communities • Goal: Achieve transformative transportation management and system performance through applications of vehicle and infrastructure connectivity • Objective: Create applications and strategies for the use of real-time mobility & cost data from all sources for use by transportation managers • Objective: Create applications and strategies for the use of real-time mobility & cost data to ensure safe and secure freight movement • Objective: Create information from real-time mobility and cost data from all sources for use in traveler information

  21. Confirmation of Strategic Initiatives, Goals, and Objectives Strategic Initiative - Mobility – Outcome: Significant improvements in mobility that result in more sustainable and livable communities • Goal: Realize “Next Generation” electronic payment systems that support transformational system performance • Objective: Create interoperability of electronic payment systems across modes (parking, transit, pricing, tolls, etc.) • Objective: Enable technology solutions in support of national policy for transportation financing

  22. Confirmation of Strategic Initiatives, Goals, and Objectives Strategic Initiative - Environment - Outcome: Reduced transportation impact on the environment and improved livability • Goal: Enable environmental management through vehicle and infrastructure connectivity • Objective: Capture environmental data from vehicles • Objective: Integrate real-time mobility data from all sources for use in transportation management and performance improvement • Objective: Create applications that use real-time data on environmental impact for use by transportation managers • Objective: Create information from real-time data on environmental impact for use in traveler information

  23. Confirmation of Strategic Initiatives, Goals, and Objectives Strategic Initiative – Policy foundation for deployment - Outcome: New institutional policy and potential regulatory requirements, and foundations for effective deployment of technologies • Goal: Establish an institutional foundation for deployment of safety, mobility, and environmental applications of vehicle and infrastructure connectivity • Objective: Identify and research solutions to address institutional foundations; governance, privacy issues, potential regulations, and policies, both nationally and internationally, to implement transportation technologies • Objective: Incorporate research into all goals to address social equity to ensure benefit to all from transportation technology solutions
