Add Offset in miles to Incident, Closure, and Traveler Event data types

9 Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review 9 Weather Alerts SwRI ready to evaluate Meteorlogix alert data Issues: –SwRI needs active web service to obtain sample data –Meteorlogix needs coverage instructions and geodata for covered roads and areas

10 Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review 10 External Events SwRI ready to accept external event data from C2C feed SwRI can develop new plug-in to publish FHP data, or SwRI can develop new SunGuide module to retrieve FHP data from FHP web service

11 Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review 11 Data To Be Fused Weather Alerts –Fused to EM Location Code –Location Code checked against existing Events –New Traveler Event presented to operator External Event Data (e.g. FHP CAD) –Fused to EM Location Code –Location Code checked against existing Events –Event conflict resolution dialog presented to operator

18 Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review 18 Location Codes SunGuide C2C will publish Location and Roadway inventory data based on EM Location and Roadway data Data Fusion will use EM Location code if available, and newly available original lat/lon values

19 SAE Code Proposed Solution Requirements directed a GUI based solution where drop down were going to be provided to allow operators to select SAE codes. During design discussions: –It was concluded that this was requesting too much of an operator (they have enough to do) –FDOT wanted a standard approach to which SAE codes were selected Resolution: –SunGuide will use EM Event Codes (a combination of SAE codes and FDOT codes) and not claim to adhere to a standard –A EM Event Code translation table will be built and event attributes will be automatically mapped –SunGuide will distribute EM Event Codes codes via C2C –EM Event Codes will be transparent to SunGuide operators Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review

Implementation of EM Event Codes A list of requested codes was generated by PBS&J (and distributed to the Districts) District 4 provided additional requests The following slides show the results, the column SunGuide Support is important to review because this could impact cost and schedule (the original approach of drop downs was very simple): –Easy translation: can be derived from SG data –EM Event type: data available in SG –Event attribute: data available in SG –Hard translation: algorithm to derive from SG data will need to be created –Set Event type and lane flags: data available in SG –Not found: no data available to support

21 EM Event Codes: Translation Table for Event Type Issue: event type can be edited by the System Administrator – should this edit screen be removed so FDOT can have the SAME event types across all SunGuide deployments? Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review

22 EM Event Codes: Location and Lane Blockage Issue: some actual (real) lane configurations may not be captured above Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review

23 EM Event Codes: Various fields Note: weather conditions can be edited by the System Administrator – this edit screen be removed by FDOT direction so FDOT can have the SAME weather conditions across all SunGuide deployments. Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review

24 EM Event Codes: Proposed Additions (beyond the SAE standards) Theses codes are were requested by District 4 Codes that will not be included (no travel time related codes will be provided): Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review

25 SAE Codes: Issues to Resolve Does FDOT wish to rename? Codes will only be included if a mapping can be identified between SunGuide and the codes. Some compaction of codes may be implemented by using qualifiers (e.g. three center lanes blocked) Are the lists provided by PBS&J acceptable? –Final tables needed by end of January –Should Admin editor screens be removed? Should the D4 proposed additions be included? Once all of the above issues are resolved SwRI will determine the impact to the project. Jan 8, 2008R4.0 Data Fusion Design Follow-up Design Review
