This document advances a proposal to implement a Congestion Information Surveillance System (CISS)for the Albuquerque metropolitan area. The CISS will offer agencies in the region responsible for transportation and air quality management a new capability to monitor traffic and air quality conditions. Simplistically stated, the project
is to utilize LIDAR technology on a macro scale to identify sources of pollutants, particularly CO, and their movements within the metropolitan area, and on a micro scale, to provide traffic volumes, vehicle classifications, turning movements, delays, and air quality data by intersection. This capability is critical to successful management of congestion and air quality called for in the Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA) of 1990 and the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) of 1991.
