This project would entail software integration of the HDS and CARMA platform, so that the HDS would be capable of testing ADS (Automated Driving Systems), Cooperative ADS, and Cooperative Driving Automation (CDA), and manual vehicles, as well as the interaction of AVs with Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs).
Other projects have been working on creating the ability for vehicles to engage in cooperative perception to ensure increased safety of all road users, including VRUs.
This project will support the refinement and further evolution of the AASHTO V2I Deployment Coalition concept, and complement it with a set of organization-specific partnerships and work scopes. That will include further correlation of the AASHTO Coalition work with related, existing collaboration mechanisms, including NOCOE FHWA commitments. This project will include development and d
This project builds off the CARMA XIL work but adapts the tools to be more user-friendly, flexible, and keep pace with the development and evolution of other open-source tools. It enables us to build off others' contributions and also reduces future maintenance.
Security credentials are a required enabler for any cooperative driving automation (CDA) applications for vehicle to everything (V2X) communication using C-V2X radios to ensure that users can trust in the validity of information received from other system users. SCMS provides the message security solution for V2X communication.
Assess CDA safety and mobility impacts using a variety of analysis and simulation tools.
Traffic incident management (TIM) is a core ITS strategy that supports equipment and technology applications. Responders interact with Traffic Management Centers (TMC's) and they are increasingly important players in sharing computer aided dispatch data, video from field units, automatic vehicle location data, and vital incident details using other communications means.
The CVCS (Connected Vehicle Core Services) is an internet-based application that provides users with the capability to define lanes, approaches, and information messages within an intersection through a user-friendly graphical interface. The data are transformable into various message formats, including ISD, MAP, SPaT, and TIM messages, presented as an ASN.1 UPER-encoded Hex string.
This project is a follow-on to the FY23 ITS funded project entitled "Complete Streets – ITS Comprehensive." The FY23 project will produce high level concept descriptions of promising ITS technologies that can be applied in a Complete Streets environment.
National Network for the Transportation Workforce (NNTW) launched and previously funded by the FHWA Office of Innovative Program Delivery’s (OIPD) Center for Transportation Workforce Development (CTWD). The purpose of the network is to collectively provide strategic and efficient approaches to transportation workforce development.
