CONNECTED VEHICLE:

THE “TALKING INTERSECTION”

TRAFFICWARE CONNECTED VEHICLE MODULE

CONNECTED VEHICLES • Vehicle Connectivity to Infrastructure, Devices, Peers

• Broad Topic with Several Subsets

• Requires Vehicle Connectivity and Platforms for Data Transfer

• Standards, Protocols, Cooperation

TRAFFICWARE CONNECTED VEHICLE MODULE

TRAFFIC SIGNALS: WHERE DO WE FIT?

• Autonomous Vehicles (AV)

• Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V)

• Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I)

• Infrastructure to Vehicle (I2V)

TRAFFICWARE CONNECTED VEHICLE MODULE

INFRASTRUCTURE TO VEHICLE

• Real Time Traffic Signal Data

– Signal Status

– Detection Status

– Event Status

– Signal Timing Settings/Parameters

• Future: Feedback Systems (V2I)

PROJECTS/MODULES Several agencies are exploring or already deployed

TRAFFICWARE CONNECTED VEHICLE MODULE

Silicon Valley: Palo Alto

NATIONAL IMPORTANCE OPEN SOURCE TRAFFIC SIGNAL DATA:

Palo Alto will provide access to traffic signal data for connected vehicle applications via an “open source” model.

MARKET RESPONSE: SHOVEL READY:

Using an infrastructure that already exists, with a communications network and processing power that’s readily accessible, could make this transformative.

WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED? • This is a service, not an income stream…

– This is about increasing mobility, safety, and efficiency to your public by leveraging data you already have.

• If you build it, they will come… – Agencies have “hidden” their data for years. So, people are just now exploring and

seeing the possibilities. No one can predict the “killer app”

• Share and let the “crowd” provide solutions… – The ROI is massive. By sharing the data, you enable third parties to solve problems

and improve traffic at little to no cost to the agency.
