Project Overview
Goals
1. Evaluate Oregon Department of Transportation’s (ODOT) travel time estimating and reporting capabilities
2. Identify locations where additional detectors might improve estimates
July 13, 2005ITE District 6 Annual Meeting
Project Overview
• ODOT Region 1 Traffic Management Operations Center (TMOC) – 485 inductive loop detectors – 19 variable message signs
(VMS), 3 currently displaying travel times
– Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS): www.TripCheck.com
July 13, 2005ITE District 6 Annual Meeting
Project Overview
• Funded by NSF• Direct fiber-optic
connection between ODOT and PSU
• 20-second loop detector data– Volume– Speed– Occupancy
• Customized travel time area
Portland Regional Transportation Archive Listing (PORTAL) http://portal.its.pdx.edu
July 13, 2005ITE District 6 Annual Meeting
Summary of Test Area
• 18 original directional freeway links
• 3 links eliminated– Construction – Detectors not functional– Not pertinent to study

Experimental Design• Analysis of PORTAL
estimates to determine required number of runs
• Data collection plan– 5-10 runs required for
most links– 4 routes designed– Transitional periods
targeted– Groups with 5-7 minute
headways– Standard probe vehicle

Data Collection• Hardware
– Palm handheld computers
– Magellan GPS devices
• Software– ITS-GPS
Free! Available at www.its.pdx.edu
• Individual runs and groups of probe vehicles
• Variety of traffic conditions
July 13, 2005ITE District 6 Annual Meeting
Data Collection• 87 probe vehicle runs• 904 minutes (~15 hours) of collection time• 516 miles of data• 12 drivers• 7 days
July 13, 2005ITE District 6 Annual Meeting
Data Comparison• Probe data
– Individual runs downloaded
– Runs plotted on freeway network map showing link endpoints
– Pertinent data segments extracted
July 13, 2005ITE District 6 Annual Meeting
Data Comparison• Detector data
– Assignment of influence areas1. Midpoint method
2. ODOT modified midpoint method
– Aggregation1. Nearest 20-second interval
2. Average of nearest interval and 1 minute before
3. Average of nearest interval and 3 minutes before
July 13, 2005ITE District 6 Annual Meeting
Results• ATMS estimates reasonably accurate
