Evaluation of the intelligent transportation system (ITS) Architecture was one of the key components of the ITS National Architecture program. Evaluation of the architecture served three purposes: (1) It lead to more informed decision on how best to design and develop the architecture. (2) It was key to developing an effective architecture that can be implemented. (3) It provided key results (performance, cost, benefit, risk, etc) to use for stakeholder interaction. The evaluations were one of the primary tools for consensus building not only on the National Architecture, but on ITS services in general. This executive summary presents the results of the evaluation efforts undertaken by the Lockheed Martin and Rockwell teams. It covers the major activities of evaluatory design; communications analysis, cost analysis/projections; performance and benefits; and risk analysis. |
