  2. VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Presentation Overview Vehicle Infrastructure Integration • What? • Why? • How?

  3. VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Vehicle Infrastructure Integration Connecting Vehicles and Infrastructure Creating an “enabling communication infrastructure”

  4. Fatalities 42,815 Fatality Rate 1.51 VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Driving Forces: Safety We have the opportunity to change the trend. VII Deployment 1980 1990 2000

  5. We have the opportunity to create a turning point. Hours of Delay VMT Added Capacity VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Driving Forces: Mobility VII Deployment 1980 1990 2000

  6. Improving Roadway Operation Improving safety and reducing congestion requires more efficient management of the roadway system. • Vehicle-highwayInformation exchangeis the key to improved management and operation of the transportation network. • This capability could provide valuable information on traffic conditions, crashes, adverse weather and road conditions, etc.

  7. VehicleInfrastructureIntegration VII Can Enable a Wide Range of Applications Work Zone Management Traveler Information Weather Sensing Intersection Collision Avoidance …for example

  8. VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Intersection Collision Avoidance • Intersection crashes account for more than 17 % of all highway fatalities. • IVI Program concluded that cooperative systems were necessary to completely address intersection collisions. • First Intelligent Intersection demonstrated. • DSRC at 5.9Ghtz provides necessary capability and security.

  9. VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Weather Response (Snow, Ice, Fog) • 17% of all highway fatalities occur during adverse weather. • Weather information is critical to travelers – Gallup Survey. • Existing national weather information is inadequate for highway operations. • Efforts to enhance this information locally are expensive and of limited value. • Sensors on vehicles could provide continuous data on air and road surface temperature, visibility, precipitation, etc.

  10. VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Traveler Information/Travel Management • Current traveler information systems are dependent on limited data. • Probe vehicles could provide complete network information: • average speeds • delay • weather events • incidents • Data collected for roadway use remains anonymous (without unique vehicle identifiers). • Tailored information could be provided directly to motorists.

  11. Telematics • A wide range of telematics services will likely be enabled. • These services will likely be available to the consumer on an opt-in basis. • Some examples: • Dynamic route guidance • Electronic payment for services • Fleet management

  12. VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Working Together! • Working group in place. • USDOT, AASHTO, auto companies • 110 public and private use cases developed. • Preliminary architecture defined. • Standards nearing completion. • DSRC prototype development underway. FHWA NHTSA We have concluded that VII is technically feasible

  13. VehicleInfrastructureIntegration Issues Remain Several key issues will have to be resolved: • Institutional issues • Business models • Engaging other stakeholders FHWA NHTSA

  14. Addressing the Issues • Institutional Issues • Privacy -- Public and Private • Data Ownership • Access • Business Approach – Many Options • Full Public Funding – Public Utility • Public–Private Partnership • Maximizing Private Involvement • First VII Workshop in February “05”

  15. US DOT Program Motivation • Potential of VII is Clear. • No single use may justify deployment. • No single entity may cause deployment. • Some sort of cooperative venture is needed. Milestone • A decision to proceed with deployment accompanied by a plan for deployment.

  16. Fatalities Fatality Rate 42,000+ reasons why VII Deployment 1990 2000 1980 VehicleInfrastructureIntegration The VII Opportunity A High Risk – High Reward Venture The Team Consensus:“It is worth pursuing” 42,000+ reasons why We have the opportunity to change the trend.
