Review of CVIEW Application for Possible Use, Olympia, WA - January 2007
Participating Agencies: Washington, DC Department of Transportation (DDOT); Washington State DOT
DDOT had received a Commercial Vehicle Information Systems and Networks (CVISN) grant to implement a Commercial Vehicle Information Exchange Window (CVIEW) system. WSDOT had developed a CVIEW system (named xCVIEW) and had offered to make it available to DDOT. The purpose of the meeting was for the four peers to exchange information and review WSDOT’s xCVIEW system. The information gained from this peer exchange provided the DDOT staff with the functionality and technical design details needed to begin implementing their own CVIEW system.
Three speakers from Ohio, Missouri, and Kentucky presented at the 2006 ITS Planning Forum as part of the Smartways (Wisconsin Chapter of ITS America) conference. The ITS Forum is an annual event that assembles ITS experts from around the country, as well as local experts. The theme of the 2006 forum was "How Can ITS Help Me?" The emphasis was on both urban and local ITS practices. The speakers gave presentations on CVO/freight, ITS and Homeland Security, and co-located centers and communications (i.e. interagency agreements, funding and staffing).
