3 Project Motivation Highway safety data are vital to making sound decisions on the safe design and operation of roadways. MAP 21 Guidance State safety data systems must support performance measures Includes guidance on collection, integration, improvement, and analysis of safety data Required identification of Fundamental Data Elements, a subset of MIRE elements Bottom line: Agencies with access to a reliable inventory of roadway features and crash data are better equipped to develop strategies that address deficiencies, using a focused and organized approach. 3

6 MIRE MIS MIRE Management Information System Development of two prototype data extraction tools: Tool 1 Runs on ArcGIS platform Scope is intersections and related intersection legs Tool 2 Requires proprietary software Incorporates intersection, traffic, geometry, route, speed limit, and turning movements data 6

7 MIRE MIS OVERVIEW OF DATA EXTRACTION TOOL 7

8 Tool Purpose Process roadway inventory data from multiple, diverse sources Attach non spatial attribute data to spatial roadway elements Intersections Intersection legs (50 ft) Store data in geodatabase Export data for safety analysis 8

9 IHSDM Sources: FHWA, Google Street View, Utah DOT, TxDOT, WSDOT 9

10 Inputs and Outputs Input Roadway network Roadway inventory Asset nodes MPO boundaries District boundaries County boundaries Local roadway data Output Intersections Intersection legs Ramps Segments 10

11 Inputs and Outputs 11

12 Tool Components ArcGIS custom toolbar 6 ArcGIS ArcToolBox models ArcGIS custom data entry interfaces 12

13 Toolbar Buttons Edit intersection or leg (Manually) create intersection from node Delete intersection Export intersection and leg data Update all intersections and legs Update new intersections and legs 13

14 Toolbar Buttons 14

15 MIRE MIS TXDOT PROOF OF CONCEPT 15

16 Objective Focus on Tool 1, implemented at NHDOT Use tool to generate intersection legs and attach spatial and non spatial data to intersections and intersection legs Use TxDOT layers as is: adapt models and templates to TxDOT datasets and naming convention Adapt attribute names and datatypes Remove NH specific code, datasets, and hardcoded values 16

17 Data Processing Overview Roadway Inventory Roadway Nodes Other Data Initial Intersections Processed Intersections Tool 1 Processed Intersection Legs SafetyAnalyst 17

18 TxDOT Tool Adaptation TxDOT Roadway Inventory Sample Roadway Nodes Manual/QA Sample Initial Intersections Processed Intersections Generic Tool TxDOT Other Data Processed Intersection Legs SafetyAnalyst 18

19 Tool Adaptation: Data Inputs Use TxDOT input feature classes Roadway Inventory TxDOT Roadways MPO Boundaries County District Create new input feature classes Asset Nodes Intersections 19

20 TxDOT Preliminary Data Processing 20

21 TxDOT Preliminary Data Processing 1.Create sample roadway node feature class using TxDOT Roadways All crossing and intersecting roadway features regardless of functional classifications 2.Create sample initial intersection feature class Physical intersections on all state roads (state state and statelocal) Manual process 21

22 TxDOT ArcGIS Models Modified existing 6 models Added two new models 0. Prep roadway (add unique ID attribute to Roadway Inventory layer) 1.a. Optional (add county name to intersection layer) 22

23 TxDOT Proof of Concept Intersection Legs Intersections Asset Nodes TxDOT Roadway Inventory Texas Roadways 23

24 MIRE MIS PILOT STUDIES 24

25 Pilot Studies Pilot implementation at WSDOT Focus on FDEs plus additional state data Focus on intersections, intersection legs, and ramps Pilot implementation at MODOT Focus on FDEs Focus on intersections, intersection legs, and ramps Special interest in local data integration 25

26 Process Adapt tool to create generic version for implementation at other states Created MIRE data model Developed extensive documentation Conduct implementation meetings Modify tools, submit, collect feedback 26

27 WSDOT Implementation 27

28 Live Demonstration 28

29 RDETAP Future Steps Further refine documentation, incorporating lessons learned from pilot studies Develop and distribute two guides Programmer guide focused on implementation User guide focused on tool usage and features Provide technical assistance to additional agencies Consider potential tool enhancements Road segments, interchanges, horizontal curve, vertical grade 29
