• Abstract:
  These draft guidelines, documented herein, primarily address the following two objectives: (a) provide guidelines on how to access and use the data from the M-E traffic database (T-DSS) in the FPS and M-E software (i.e., the TxME); and (b) make recommendations for the future development of interfacial modules for automated and direct import of the FPS and M-E traffic data inputs from the T-DSS. In the subsequent sections, the T-DSS is discussed, followed by the FPS and the corresponding traffic data inputs. This is followed by the TxME, TxCRCP-ME, and the M-E PDG along with their corresponding M-E traffic data inputs. A summary of recommendations for the development of interfacial modules between the T-DSS and M-E software then wraps up the document.
