  1. Response, Emergency Staging, Communications, Uniform Management, and Evacuation (R.E.S.C.U.M.E.) NWTC Session 2C: Incident ManagementKevin Dopart, NoblisFebruary 8, 2012Corvallis, OR

  2. Overview • USDOT ITS Program Background • Traffic Incident Management and ITS • Mobility Program • R.E.S.C.U.M.E. Status and Plans

  3. What is ITS? • Transaction Automation • System Control • Decision Information

  4. USDOT ITS Program • ~$100 million annual research program addressing intelligent vehicles and infrastructure • Primary focus on “connected vehicles” to address safety, mobility and environmental challenges • The ITS Joint Program Office, housed in RITA, coordinates multimodal research initiatives across six USDOT administrations: FHWA, NHTSA, FTA, FMCSA, FRA, and MARAD.

  5. ITS Research Program Components Applications Technology Policy

  6. Signal Preemption CAD/ITS Mayday/NG9-1-1 IIMS & Cameraphone Traffic Incident Management and ITS Transport (e.g EMS) Emergency Responders Respond Recon Salvage Emergency On-Scene Operations Detect Notify Dispatch Traffic Control Non-Emergency On-Scene Operations Verify Dispatch Respond Transport (e.g debris) Secondary Responders Traffic Incident Duration

  7. ITS Mobility: Data Capture and Management (DCM) & Dynamic Mobility Applications (DMA) Programs

  8. Mobility Program

  9. Data Capture and Management Program Data Environment • Enable systematic data capture • Develop usable data environments • Reduce cost and institutional barriers • Determine infrastructure requirements

  10. Dynamic Mobility Applications Program • Create applications using DCM data environments • Develop and assess decision support applications • Demonstrate promising applications • Determine infrastructure requirements • Expedite development, testing, commercialization, and deployment of innovative mobility applications Transformative Mobility Applications

  11. Application Bundles • Consolidated input from external stakeholders • Considered internal stakeholder priorities • Leverage on-going or other planned research • Grouped applications into bundles • Similar high-level data needs • Interaction among applications predicted • Evident value in concurrent development • Encourage coordinated non-federal research activity • Bundling increases transformational impactsand reduces R&D costs • Applications the program cannot fund at this time are still candidates for collaborative development with other programs or stakeholders

  12. Data Environments and Application Bundles 93 ideas 30 applications 7 bundles

  15. Incident Scene Pre-Arrival Staging Guidance for Emergency Responders (RESP-STG) • Situational awareness info to responders while en route • Input to responder vehicle routing, staging and secondary dispatch decisions • Staging plans • Satellite imagery • GIS data • Current weather data • Real-time modeling outputs Source: Oconto County, WI

  16. Incident Scene Work Zone Alerts for Drivers and Workers (INC−ZONE) • Two components • Alerts drivers of lane closings and unsafe speeds for temporary work zones • Could be augmented with merging and speed guidance to drivers. • Warns on-scene workers of vehicles with trajectories or speeds that pose a high risk to their safety

  17. Mayday Relay (MAYDAY) • Sends a crash notification message a roadside DSRC hot spot, likely relayed via a properly-equippedpassing vehicle • This information is then forwarded to the appropriate PSAP based on the crash location. Source: Greg Carter Herald Sun

  18. Emergency Comm and Evacuation (EVAC) • Addresses the needs of two different evacuee groups: • Those using their own transportation • Dynamic route guidance information • Current traffic and road conditions • Location of available lodging • Location of fuel, food, water, cash machines and other necessitates • Those requiring assistance • Identify and locate people who are more likely to require guidance and assistance • Identify existing service providers and other available resources

  19. RESP-STG MAYDAY Traffic Incident Management and R.E.S.C.U.M.E Transport (e.g EMS) Emergency Responders Respond Recon Salvage Emergency On-Scene Operations INC−ZONE Detect Notify Dispatch Traffic Control Non-Emergency On-Scene Operations Verify Dispatch Respond Transport (e.g debris) Secondary Responders Traffic Incident Duration

  20. Key DMA Program Milestones • Early 2012: Implement the Open Source Portal • Early 2012: Continuing to engage stakeholders on DMA program direction • May 2012: Complete ConOps for each bundle • June 2012: Develop Phase 2 Integrated Research Plan • September 2012: Procure and begin developing selected DMA bundles • Challenges • Small Scale Field Tests • Simulation Studies
