Abstract:

Microcomputers continue to revolutionize the productivity and creativity of transportation professionals leading to improvements in transportation planning, design, and management processes. This proceedings consists of papers presented at the Fourth International Conference on Microcomputers in Transportation, held July 22-24, 1992 in Baltimore, Maryland. They describe microcomputer applications in transportation planning, traffic impact analysis, traffic engineering, highway and transit facility design, geographic information systems, accident analysis, economic analysis, information management, project management, and computer tools. The papers are organized into five tracks: 1) Geographic information systems; 2) transportation planning; 3) traffic and transit operations; 4) Transport facility design and management; and 5) computer resources development and application. This proceedings serves as a reference for new microcomputer applications in the field since it focuses on the actual experience of professionals solving real-world transportation problems.
