Title:

The Roadway INFOstructure What? Why? How?: Providing for Integrated Information to Roadway System Managers and Users

Abstract:

In August 2002, more than 80 professionals from government, industry, and academia met at the National Academies' Beckman Center in Irvine, California, to participate in a two-day workshop, "The Roadway INFOstructure: Why? What? How?". In brief, the objective of the workshop was to develop a shared (and shareable) understanding of the purpose of the Roadway INFOstructure and to explore such critical issues as: how the Roadway INFOstructure should be developed and operated; data ownership and privacy; addressing transportation data needs through the INFOstructure; addressing transportation security needs through the INFOstructure; opportunities and requirements for performance and information security; and technical, institutional, financial, and policy challenges
