• Abstract:
  The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the American Association of State Highway ; Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and the Transportation Research Board (TRB), a ; division of the National Research Council (NRC), maintain databases to store national ; transportation data that cover many aspects of the transportation system and its ; operation. Much of these data are collected by the state transportation agencies. ; In many instances, the state-level database management systems and/or information ; tracking systems do not automatically generate output appropriate for direct ; submission to FHWA, AASHTO or TRB. Therefore, there was a need to develop a digital ; protocol and database management system to streamline tracking and reporting of ; transportation proprietary product evaluation information for internal use and ; submittal to the national databases. Increasing the efficiency of this reporting ; process will allow ConnDOT, and potentially other DOTs, to more efficiently conduct ; this business function and with greater detail and accuracy. The first phase of this ; research developed the application. The second phase of this research developed the ; protocol and local-area-network connectivity necessary to provide wider access to the ; database.
