Abstract:This is one of seven studies exploring processes for developing Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) architectures for regional, statewide, or commercial vehicle applications. This study was prepared for a broad-based, non-technical audience. In 1998, Houston transportation stakeholders from the state, county, city, and the transit agency worked together to map ITS projects to the National ITS Architecture. Houston was unique among the case studies in using agency staff, rather than consultants, to develop their architectures. This case study describes: laying the groundwork for the development of project architectures during an initial two-day meeting; developing architecture mappings for specific projects during a two-month-long process; the incorporation of architecture mapping into the transit agency's project development process; and questions facing the area in its attempt to take the next step, the development of a regional ITS architecture. The details of the Houston experience, including samples of architecture mappings and lessons learned are included in this case study, and will be of particular interest for those areas planning to use agency staff to develop ITS architectures.
