Abstract:The Safety Pilot Model Deployment (SPMD) study was run in the Ann Arbor, MI area and involved over 2,000 vehicles. The study goal was to pilot a connected-vehicle system that included roadside units (RSUs) fixed to specific intersections and vehicle-based communication units. Data were collected from RSUs as well as vehicles. Each vehicle was equipped with one of four unique device packages which provide a series of data elements which communicate the vehicle's location and motion. The packages are referenced as the Integrated Safety Device (ISD); Aftermarket Safety Device (ASD); Retrofit Safety Device (RSD) and Vehicle Awareness Device (VAD). More than 75 percent of the total equipped vehicles used a VAD, which is the most primitive device. Vehicles with VAD can only transmit the data being generated and collected by their host vehicle; they are not able to receive messages transmitted from other vehicles. They mainly transmit "here I am" messages while increasing the likelihood of vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) interactions. More detailed vehicle-based data came from vehicles equipped with ISD, ASD, and RSD packages with the ability to collect, receive and transmit. Those vehicles had more advanced safety features and they also collected video data files. This dataset contains data from the onboard wireless safety units (WSUs). This file primarily consists of GPS-based data elements and those that are obtained from the vehicle’s Controller Area Network (CAN) Bus. Different brands of WSUs were used but all of the data were stored in one dataset. A series of data elements that present vehicle performance information and the state of a few of its components are also included.
