HRSO - Connected Automated Vehicles

CONNECTED AUTOMATION

The AMS Program researches and evaluates the potential impacts of prominent connected and automated vehicle applications. Projects in this area collect robust, real-world datasets, develop AMS tools and methodologies that capture the behavior of connected and automated technologies in traffic, and conduct case studies to better understand the real-world impacts of connected and automated vehicles. 

Development of an Analysis, Modeling, and Simulation Framework for V2I and Connected/Automated Vehicle Environment 

HRSO - Safety (Human Factors, Geometric Design, IHSDM, HSIS, etc.)

The primary mission of the Roadway Geometric Design and Safety Research is to support the FHWA Office of Safety Research & Development by conducting research on the geometric design of roadways and its effects on safety.

HRSO - Distributed Testing

HRSO - Analysis, Modeling and Simulation (AMS)

Analysis, modeling, and simulation (AMS) is a core competency in the field of transportation engineering, enabling engineers to safely test strategies and technologies prior to field deployment. AMS can be a critical element in decisionmaking in an increasingly complex, dynamic transportation system, particularly with new questions arising regarding the impact of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) and the new possibilities for traffic management powered by artificial intelligence (AI). 

Safety Philosophy

The following was issued for the Federal Lands Highway Program in March 2008:

In support of the national goals set forth within the U.S. Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration, the Office of Federal Lands Highway (FLH) is...
