Abstract


Paper
California Department of Transportation GIS/Level of Service Application
Track: Transportation and Logistics
Author(s): Carlos Yamzon

This GIS application utilizes ArcView 3.2 Avenue programming to perform Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) capacity and levels of service analysis methodologies for freeways, multi-lane highways, and two-lane rural highways on the entire or selected segments of a Regional Traffic Model network. Using the ArcView and TP+ Plus/Viper software interface capabilities, a traffic model is converted to a shapefile and analyzed in the ArcView environment. This application demonstrates a GIS/Traffic Model/HCM Interface capability that streamlines the process of impact analysis on highway projects and local development.
