Description of Technology or Technique Application: A Florida DOT contractor obtains videolog images of the State Highway System, in both directions, at 0.01 mile intervals. The images are stored and distributed on CD-ROMs. They are also put onto a large hard disk and made available to any Florida DOT employee using a browser on our intranet. |
Description of Use or Possible Use for HPMS (If project is in research phase, describe the research project): Quality control on many HPMS data items can be performed by reviewing the videologs rather than by making field investigations. |
Results of Use (In terms of improved efficiency, quality, consistency, safety of data collection and other benefits): Using videologs improves the efficiency and safety of data review. This has the additional effect of encouraging more frequent reviews, thus improving data quality. |

Description of Technology or Technique Application: Kansas is currently running in parallel with the old mainframe, flat file, batch environment, and the new Exor Highways, client/server environment, relational database. The Exor Highways will be used for state system information, whereas the mainframe will continue to be used for non-state system information. Plans will be implemented in the future to transfer the non-state system to Exor Highways. One of the benefits of moving to Exor Highways is the flexibility and customization that it allows. Future software updates will allow for web based application. |
Description of Use or Possible Use for HPMS (If project is in research phase, describe the research project): Exor Highways has greatly increased access to data in the state system inventory database to the entire agency. It will facilitate batch updating of the HPMS database for the annual submittal. |
Results of Use (In terms of improved efficiency, quality, consistency, safety of data collection and other benefits): Kansas anticipates improvement in efficiency of HPMS database maintenance that will translate into increased data integrity. Exor Highways allows for the data entry to be streamlined, decreasing the complexity and increasing the flexibility when compared to the mainframe system. |

Description of Technology or Technique Application: PEEK WIM recorders collect volume, vehicle classification and weight data at permanent sites. Some sites represent HPMS segments with the rest being used as universe data. ITC Traffic Ace counter/classifiers are used to collect 48-hour volume and vehicle classification data on HPMS segments as well as other selected sites. Annual average daily traffic estimates (AADT) is calculated using adjustment factors against the volume and classification counts. The vehicle miles of travel are calculated by multiplying the AADT times the segment length for various categories. |
|||||
Description of Use or Possible Use for HPMS (If project is in research phase, describe the research project): Volume and vehicle classification data provide AADT and truck percents. |
|||||
Results of Use (In terms of improved efficiency, quality, consistency, safety of data collection and other benefits): The recorders and counters/classifiers provide good quality data. |

Description of Technology or Technique Application: For the last three years, the Illinois Department of Transportation has been using magnetic sensors to collect classification data for our State routes and for the HPMS volume and truck data. We are using the NuMetrics HiStar 97 for the collection of approximately 6,000 short-term counts on our state system. The traffic counter collects the classification data by vehicle length and also provides speed data within defined bins. |
Description of Use or Possible Use for HPMS (If project is in research phase, describe the research project): We now have complete classification coverage on our State routes, instead of using the previous 300 HPMS classification samples to derive truck VMT. Current truck ADT numbers are available at any location on state system roads. The 300 HPMS classification locations are no longer being counted. |
Results of Use (In terms of improved efficiency, quality, consistency, safety of data collection and other benefits): The length classification data is divided into 3 categories (passenger vehicles, single-unit, multi-unit). Utilizing the three length classification categories, we are able to collect thousands of classification counts throughout the state. IDOT has also developed an interactive GIS Internet application that displays all the volume and truck ADT numbers in the state. |
