Title: INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR SANTA MONICA SMART CORRIDOR
Abstract: An advanced incident management system using state of the art Intelligent Vehicle Highway System (IVHS) technologies is described here. The objective of the system is to develop an on-line Decision Support System using a Knowledge-Based Expert System (KBES) to aid Traffic Operations Center (TOC) personnel to detect, verify and respond to traffic incidents. The system provides the means through which different agencies (such as police, transportation departments, etc.) involved in the management of incidents can coordinate their efforts and work in a complimentary manner by sharing resources and information. Incident data from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) are automatically extracted and used to identify incidents in the corridor. This system is being developed for a Corridor (called Smart Corridor) in Southern California which consists of a 13 mile stretch of Santa Monica Freeway and adjacent arterial streets.
