Abstract:

This project focused on creating a platform for the development and evaluation of connected vehicle applications that can enhance safety and mobility, reduce environmental impacts, and improve operations within District of Columbia Department of Transportation (DDOT)’s operational region. First, the current status of DDOT’s intelligent transportation system (ITS) infrastructure was evaluated and suggestions for improvements to support CV initiatives were made. Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI) developed an onboard unit (OBU) package for installation in five DDOT work trucks to support vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications. VTTI developed and integrated a number of software packages with the goal of improving DDOT’s operating efficiency. Two software applications previously created by VTTI and based on the existing Virginia Connected Corridors (VCC) infrastructure, VCC Monitor and VCC Mobile, were adapted by integrating the data collected by the OBE installed in DDOT’s trucks (i.e., temperature and pothole data). Furthermore, an Android smartphone application was developed from the ground up to collect road surface data, detect potholes, and send that information to VCC Monitor for easy identification and tracking. To support DDOT’s data analytics goals using the real‐time data transmitted by the equipped DDOT vehicles, VTTI provided DDOT with the necessary information to access and interact with the data in the VCC Cloud. This platform will position DDOT on the cutting‐edge of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) research in a short period of time, with efforts targeted specifically at local transportation challenges.
