Abstract


Paper
Using ArcGIS for Traffic Signal Timing
Track: Transportation and Logistics
Author(s): James Miller, Kevin Broecker

The presentation will cover the process needed to integrate data from third party software into ArcGIS 8.1 for traffic signal optimization on a countywide basis. The purpose of this study was to determine where and when traffic signal timing needed to be adjusted to help optimize the flow of traffic for more than 300 signalized intersections. The presentation will review the work flow for reformatting data from the Synchro Traffic Signal Timing software and making it useful in ArcGIS. The types of data collected, the database design, and how the data is analyzed to optimize traffic signals will be reviewed.
