2 Objectives Prototyping the data fusion process using weather, traffic, and incident data sources for weather-responsive ATMIS Study the possible effects of weather on measured traffic flow

3 Road Weather Management Database

4 Study Area I-5 NB Freeway Portland, OR MP MP MP 307.9

5 Weather Data Data Source: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Station: Portland International Airport (PDX) Hourly rainfall, visibility and wind speed

6 Traffic Data Data Source: Portland Oregon Regional Transportation Archive Listing (PORTAL) Data Characteristics: Weekdays 2005, 2006 and 2007 (14,965 hours) Hourly aggregated dual-loop detector data Incident free hours

7 Incident Data Data Source: Portland Oregon Regional Transportation Archive Listing (PORTAL) Data Characteristics: Recorded incidents including type of incident, the lanes that were blocked as a result of the incident, and the start and end time of the incident 2005, 2006 and 2007 (more than 2,700 incidents)

8 Weather Categorization Rainfall Classification: 1) No rain 2) Very light rain ( in/hr) 3) Light rain ( in/hr) 4) Moderate rain ( in/hr) 5) Heavy rain (>0.16 in/hr) Total N = 14,965 N(1) = 13,389 N(2) = 602 N(3) = 572 N(4) = 371 N(5) = 31 Note: ‘No rain’ data excluded from plot Precipitation (0.01 inch/hour) Frequency (hours)

12 Effects of Rainfall on Mean Flow Very Light Light Moderate Time of Day Median Flow (vph)

13 Statistical Significance Non-Parametric Kruskal-Wallis Test Time of Day P-value

14 Effects of Rainfall on Mean Flow 17:00 Probabilistic Approach

15 Conclusions  We observed traffic changes with rain at these locations; amount varied with intensity and hour of day Speeds up to 7 mph lower when raining Flows up to 230 vph lower when raining  Effects not always statistically significant – relationship with congestion is unclear  Unknown seasonal influences  Unknown sensitivity to weather categorization

16 Next Steps  Work with higher resolution weather and traffic data (5-min aggregated weather data are also available)  Look at more sites  Sensitivity analysis of weather classification
