Target Completion Date: July 1, 2011 Safety, Operations, and Traffic Engineering
The objective of this project is to develop a standard test procedure to evaluate the quality of travel-time data services. The standard test procedure will produce evaluation results that are consistent and will allow for fair comparisons between travel-time data services. The research will produce an official standard sanctioned by a standards development organization, such as ASTM International, that will specify a clear quality assessment procedure for travel-time data. This standard will then be available for transportation agencies and information service providers to specify when comparing methods/services. In other words, the standard test procedure will allow a user of travel-time data services to compare products of multiple methods and vendors on a level playing field.
