摘要: This report discusses an investigation of a prototype geographic information system (GIS) and integrated web-based application (WebShipCost-Risk) with the ability to provide cost, time, and uncertainty analysis of inter-modal transportation processes based on up-to-date network information. The prototype system can allow shippers to define, represent and update their specific transportation network and related data within a GIS. The integration of a decision support system with a GIS could provide shippers with more convenient and efficient data management methods to support the decision making in terms of route planning. To achieve the desired goals, a three layer architecture was considered, which was based on a commercial GIS, a database system, and internet components. If fully implemented, the prototype application could provide a graphic, user-friendly analysis of inter-modal transportation networks. / NOTE: Final rept. 1 Jul 03-31 Mar 07. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Department of Transportation, Washington, DC.
