Abstract:

An Advanced Traveler Information System demonstration called ADVANCE is being prepared for implementation on an arterial street network in the suburbs of Chicago. This paper will describe a data fusion process that combines the output from the algorithms of the program to make an overall assesstment of traffic conditions on the network. Initial plans for implementing the incident detection algorithms and the fusion process using rule based systems and a neutral network are presented.
