摘要: |
Today's traffic centers control traffic signals in a relatively low-tech environment. However, this situation is changing quickly. The traffic management centers (TMCs) of the near future--under the advanced traffic management systems (ATMs) component of the intelligent transportation systems program--will be sophisticated facilities with advanced tools and communication systems, manipulating and managing massive amounts of information. The Federal Highway Administration's human factors research program in ATMS is designed to meet the current and projected needs of the TMC design community. Design guidelines are developed based on user requirements and analytical assessments of existing TMCs and comparable systems. The first edition of the human factors ATMS TMC design handbook will be available before the end of 1995, in time to support current upgrades and designs of TMCs. The human factors TMC research simulator supports the development of empirically based human factors design guidelines. This research test bed will continue to support the development and refinement of ATMS TMC design well into the future. |
