JTOC – Joint Transport Operations Centre JTOC general update

SCATS in Auckland SCATS is finally on the move 5 year’s in the making Merger - Transit NZ and LTSA Mergers – Auckland Councils Merger – RTA and Maritime Safety into RMS and Transport for NSW Licenses needed re-doing for both AT and NZTA SCATS until August 2013  SCATS migration to (started this week!)

The Numbers We have 9 Regions with provision for 11 Regions in our license Migrating of sites between Regions is underway to “load balance” the regions from an SI/SA perspective Intersections = SCATS sites (incl 122 Ramp signal sites) 21 Isolated sites

Upgrading the Auckland System This has been a challenge in many different ways! Progressively managed upgrades Communications Server Environment SCATS software From the we have progressively migrated ALL leased line communication circuits primarily to ADSL Cheaper operating costs Not tied to one location for SCATS servers The last circuit was changed over in Sept 2013

Communications No more leased line circuits Many comms solutions ADSL – 608 sites VDSL – 21 sites + CCTV Private copper – 81 sites (mostly Auckland CBD) Fibre – 152 sites WiMax Wireless – 14 sites 3G – 1 site Multi connected – 12 sites

SCATS Environment Servers migrated from physical operating Windows Server 2003 Now ALL servers are operating in a Virtual Machine environment running Windows Server 2008 R2 SCATS ran well under this setup Next steps after migrating to is to prepare and test the failover/fail back systems

SCATS Upgrade Until August 2013 running version Major data cleanup required for preparation of migrating to Variation routines and action lists mostly Intermediate jump to (bridging version) completed in Sept 2013 New licenses and dongles required for Many headaches around licensing and naming conventions Most SCATS Regions will change name to marry up with Signal maintenance area’s Tricky issues around connecting physical Network dongles to Virtual servers SCATS requires more Central Manager data processing Upgraded SCATS CM Access database to SQL server express

SCATS Upgrade SCATS Central Manager upgraded to on Monday this week RED network dongles cannot be updated by user New dongles are required if you purchase more site licenses Regions will be upgraded over the next two weeks Licensing issues – Dual licensing now in use Server license and Client license required for 3 rd party ITS connected applications Bus priority broken for two days until RMS figured out how to license external 3 rd party ITS applications

SCATS Applications In addition to the core applications: SCATS History Reader (ALL sites, not just those in IDM’s) SCATS Alarm Analyser SCATS Communication Analyser SCATS Traffic Reporter SCATS Alert SCATS Action Runner (new for SCATS 6.9 onwards) If anyone is interested I can show these in use.
