Obstacles• System Signal Detector– Very Limited Aggregation– Access to Real Time Data– Limited Detection & Spacing
• Bus– Access to Real Time Data
ITS
Next Step• System Signal Detector– Cycle level data (Gresham, OR – SCATS)
• Bus– TriMet Buses Can Be Probes– Extensive Network Coverage– Opportunity to Evaluate Multiple Routes on
Same Arterial
Glossary• MAC Address: a 48 bit (>28
trillion) unique address assigned to a device by its manufacturer.
• Bluetooth: a wireless protocol utilizing short-range communications technology facilitating data transmission over short distances from fixed and/or mobile devices

Environmental Performance
Arterial Fusion Project
• Create framework to fuse – Bus Probe Data– Matched Vehicle Probe Data– Adaptive Signal System Data– Private Sector Data?
• In to one complete picture
Sustainability Performance Measures Using Archived ITS Data:
1. Emissions Estimates2. Fuel Consumption3. Cost of Delay4. Person Mobility (PMT, PHT, PHD)
Emissions Measure Methodology
MOBILE inputs generated from PORTAL and gathered local data
MOBILE model run for locations and time periods of interest
MOBILE output database processed to establish emissions rates
Emissions rates combined with PORTAL travel data (VMT) to determine freeway segment emissions

MOBILE 6.2
1. New facility-specific drive cycles recorded in modern American cities
2. Updated vehicles, emissions rates, regulatory programs, and driver behaviors
3. Fuel consumption and CO2 estimates not speed-dependent (only based on fuel and fleet data)
4. Non-specified parameters default to national averages (many county-specific data available from the EPA)
Improvements and caveats
Average Speed Emissions Models• Model Development Process:
Record Drive Cycles
• Probe vehicles on complete trips
• Representative set of conditions
• Key to accuracy of model
Test Vehicles
• Run vehicles through drive cycles on a dynamometer
• Representative set of vehicles from roadway fleet
• Important to capture range of conditions, size, age, etc.
Avg. Speed Emission Rates
• Link emissions to vehicle classes at average drive cycle speeds
• Facility-specific drive cycles can capture congestion effects
Calculate Emissions with rates and travel
• Uses VMT and emissions rates
• Emissions rates can be modified by other inputs (weather, fuel programs, etc.)
