• Abstract:
  This report documents Phase III of the development and operation of a prototype for the Statewide Transportation ; Engineering Warehouse for Archived Regional Data (STEWARD). It reflects the progress on the development and ; operation of STEWARD since the completion of Phase II in April 2008. The previous effort focused on FDOT District 2 to ; demonstrate that data from a traffic management center can be centrally archived in a practical manner and that a variety of ; useful reports and other products can be produced. The current effort included the addition of data from four more FDOT ; districts (4, 5, 6 and 7) to the STEWARD database. A fully functional Web site was implemented to support users in ; retrieving data and creating reports. Support was provided to a variety of users for research and operational studies. ; Analyses were conducted using the data to demonstrate the extraction of traffic counts from detectors, evaluation of ; managed lanes, travel time reliability reporting, evaluation of the effect of an incident on freeway performance and a ; comparison of the detector data characteristics with the principles of traffic flow theory. As a result of this project it was ; recommended that the STEWARD operation be continued and expanded. ; The work was performed under two parallel projects, one of which was supported by the FDOT and the other by the ; University of Florida. While the objectives of these two projects were stated separately, some of the activities overlapped ; the project boundaries in a manner that was mutually beneficial to both projects. Therefore, the projects have been ; combined for reporting purposes to facilitate review and assimilation of the “big picture” by stakeholders. This document ; serves as the final report for both projects.
