摘要: |
Designers of advanced traffic management systems (ATMS) should consider the characteristics, capabilities, and limitations of human operators in the development of such systems. This article reports on experiments being conducted by the Federal Highway Administration to produce human factors design guidelines for future traffic management centers (TMCs). The first experiment focused on interfaces for selecting and controlling remote cameras. The second experiment investigated the potential advantage of using an automated incident detection system in place of, or in addition to, a color-coded traffic flow map to detect and verify roadway incidents. The third experiment tested several kinds of automation for systems that employ variable message signs to report congestion and incidents at specific sites. A preliminary edition of human factors design guidelines for TMC design was distributed; a second edition will be published shortly. |
