In support of USDOT’s Intelligent Transportation Systems’ (ITS) Mobility Program, the Dynamic Mobility Applications (DMA) program seeks to create applications that fully leverage frequently collected and rapidly disseminated multi-source data gathered from connected travelers, vehicles and infrastructure to increase efficiency and improve individual mobility while reducing negative environmental impacts and safety risks. There are three Integrated Dynamic Transit Operations (IDTO) applications: Connection Protection (T-CONNECT); Dynamic Transit Operations (T-DISP); and Dynamic Ridesharing (D-RIDE). The T-CONNECT application will provide transit users and riders the means to ensure successful transit transfers. T-DISP will allow travelers to make real-time trip requests through personal mobile devices. D-RIDE will identify and accept potential ridesharing opportunities along a given travel route. This Concept of Operations (ConOps) document provides a conceptual overview of the proposed IDTO applications and the high-level quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the applications to users, developers and other stakeholders. In addition to the system concepts, this document also describes the modes of operation, user classes, support environment, operational scenarios, discusses the operational, organizational, and other impacts of the IDTO applications, and provides an analysis of the benefits, limitations, advantages/disadvantages, alternatives, and trade-offs considered for the proposed applications.
