This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the past 30 years, professionals in a variety of fields have increasingly recognized Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and other geospatial tools as resources that enable better and more efficient decision-making. During this time, state Departments of Transportation (DOTs) have progressively utilized geospatial information and technologies in a variety of activities including planning, decision support, and project management. / In 2005-2006, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Office of Interstate and Border Planning (HEPI), along with several state transportation executives, conducted a series of site visits to transportaiton agencies and GIS vendors to identify the critical information that state DOTs use in making investment decisions in the latest geospatial technologies. Following the scan, FHWA HEPI and the Transportation Research Board (TRB) hosted a one-day workshop to discuss the scan findings. One of the workshop recommendations was to document state DOTs' various business models for implementing geospatial technologies. The outcome would be a resource to share lessons learned and effective practices among state DOTs. / In 2006, the Volpe Center developed case studies for HEPI that described the business models for geospatial technology implementation at six state DOTs. The findings reported there suggested that the early history of implementing GIS at state DOTs was a primary factor determining how GIS activities are currently organizationally arranged and funded; there was no evidence of drastic or unexpected organizational changes for GIS programs. In order to supplement and enhance these and other conclusions, this follow-on report documents the 'GIS business models' for an additional 36 of the Nation's state DOTs. This report summarizes the 'phase two' research. It describes the historical and organizational factors contributing to the development of GIS programs at state DOTs, as well as related effective practices. Given this second phase's considerably larger state DOT sample size, generalizations about the organizational success factors and constraints related to GIS activities at state DOTs are more likely comprehensive."--Background and Purpose.
Download or read book Pavement Management Applications Using Geographic Information Systems written by Gerardo W. Flintsch and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2004 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 335: Pavement Management Applications Using Geographic Information Systems examines the state of the practice and knowledge of pavement management systems (PMS) using geographic information systems (GIS) and other spatial technologies, and discusses how the technologies have been combined to enhance the highway management process. The synthesis reviews the principal issues related to PMS data collection, integration, management, and dissemination; applications of spatial technologies for map generation and PMS spatial analysis; and implementation-related issues, including approaches used for integrating PMS and GIS and the different tools used to support pavement management decisions.
Download or read book Geographic Information Systems for Transportation written by Harvey J. Miller and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2001 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GIS data and tools are revolutionizing transportation research and decision making, allowing transportation analysts and professionals to understand and solve complex transportation problems that were previously impossible. Here, Miller and Shaw present a comprehensive discussion of fundamental geographic science and the applications of these principles using GIS and other software tools. By providing thorough and accessible discussions of transportation analysis within a GIS environment, this volume fills a critical niche in GIS-T and GIS literature.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As a basis for advancing sound decision making, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) is committed to developing high-quality transportation data and information. With the understanding that geospatial data provide an important infrastructure for managing and integrating information necessary for informed decision making, BTS asked the Transportation Research Board to conduct a project to provide recommendations for improving geospatial information infrastructure among and across all modes of transportation. The objectives of this project were to (a) characterize the current practice in geospatial information technologies in transportation organizations; (b) identify problems and opportunities in coordination, communication, and cooperation on geospatial information among transportation modes; (c) suggest mechanisms for the development, management, and coordination of geospatial information technologies throughout USDOT; and (d) recommend approaches for enhancing geospatial information within transportation organizations. The intent is to provide recommendations to transportation agencies, primarily at the federal level but also at the state and local levels, to enhance decision making through rethinking institutional roles and responsibilities; building capacity and commitment; and augmenting the creation, sharing, and use of geospatial information."--Page viii.

Book excerpt: "On July 22-23, 2008, the Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA) Office of Interstate and Border Planning and Office Real Estate Services sponsored a 1.5-day peer exchange focusing on select state Departments of Transportation (DOTs) applications of geographic information systems (GIS) in the right-of-way (ROW) area. Purposes of the peer exchange, which was a follow-up to a peer exchange held in August 2007 on the same topic, were to: [1] Provide participants with an update on the progress of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program's (NCHRP) Project 8-55A Developing a Logical Model for a Geospatial ROW Information Management System; [2] Allow participants from the 2007 peer exchange to describe the progress each has made over the last year in developing their respective GIS for ROW applications; and, more generally, [3] Give state DOTs with noteworthy GIS applications for ROW the opportunity to share their knowledge and experiences with each other and with state DOTs in the beginning stages of implementing GIS in the ROW area."--Summary.
