| 摘要： | This project designed, prepared, installed and pilot tested a Traffic Management Center/Intelligent Transportation System (TMC/ITS) lab for Shelby Hall, on the University of Alabama (UA) campus. This was a Phase I installation that provided six workstations capable of accommodating 12 students in an educational mode, and six students in a research mode. Future stages of development will include advanced ITS research and implementation capabilities as the lab expands into adjacent space, and virtual operations so that the traffic management lab can be operated by faculty members and students at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and the University of Alabama in Huntsville, and by students in Civil Engineering classes outside of the University of Alabama System. The University partnered with the Tuscaloosa Department of Transportation (TDOT) in developing the lab. TDOT allowed the lab to operate as a satellite of the TDOT TMC, with identical hardware, and using TDOT software, command and control features and signals. In addition, faculty and students using the new TMC/ITS lab can acquire and display images from TDOT's extensive system of pan-tilt-zoom traffic cameras, acquire data from TDOT sensors, view displays and other information from traffic signal control cabinets, and otherwise replicate an operating traffic management center. |
