• Abstract:
  This report documents the development of a feasibility study of the Lafayette Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Center. Due to the size of Lafayette, the study was done with an approach slightly different from the majority of ITS studies conducted for large urban areas. After a thorough evaluation of the current transportation systems, two surveys were conducted by the core ITS stakeholders. Rather than going through a conceptual process, the local stakeholders went through a detailed ITS data survey to identify and prioritize ITS user services for the proposed Lafayette ITS Center. The data survey was designed by closely following the National ITS Architecture. The survey, strongly recommended by the local traffic engineers, concretely reveals the existing ITS elements, the current ownership of the existing ITS data, and what data will be needed at the different ITS development stages. Based on the results of the survey, the market packages were developed followed by the architectures.
