• Abstract:
  The Invehicle Safety Advisory and Warning System (IVSAWS) is a Federal Highway Administration effort to develop a nationwide vehicular information system that provides drivers with advance, supplemental notification of dangerous road conditions using electronic warning zones with precise areas of coverage. The research study investigated techniques to provide drivers with advance notice of safety advisories and hazard warnings so drivers can take appropriate actions. The technical portion of the study identified applicable hazard scenarios, investigated possible system benefits, derived functional requirements, defined a communication architecture, and made recommendations to implement the system. The volumes in the series are: - FHWA-RD-94-061 Volume I: Executive Summary; - FHWA-RD-94-190 Volume II: Final Report; - FHWA-RD-94-191 Volume III: Appendixes A Through H (Reference Materials) - FHWA-RD-94-192 Volume IV: Appendixes I Through K (Reference Materials); - FHWA-RD-94-193 Volume V: Appendixes L Through V (Reference Materials)
