T3 Webinar – July 30, 2014Regional ITS Architecture

Use and Maintenance

NEW MEXICO

We All Know -

ITS Architectures are a common framework transportation systems.

ITS Architectures define -• functions, • physical entities or subsystems, and• information flows and data flows.

ITS Architectures are designed – • for a specific term,• for a defined area, and• for regional transportation.

But ….

ITS Architectures –

Can be a catalyst for change,

Can bridge historically disparate functions within an agency, and

Can serve as a basis of cooperation among different agencies,

And be leveraged further for other mutual gains.

New Mexico Has Five ITS Regional Architectures

Farmington

Santa Fe

Albuquerque

Las Cruces

STATEWIDE

First Regional Architecture Developed in December 2000 forAlbuquerque Metropolitan Planning Area

The Beginning

• Las Cruces first developed in 2003, updated in 2007,2nd update in June 2014

• Santa Fe first developed in 2005, updated in 2011

• Statewide first developed in 2007, updated in 2013

• AMPA first update in 2007, • another major update is planned 2014• biannual updates align with TIP / MTP cycle

• Farmington first developed in 2006, updated in 2012

Architecture Development Timelines

More Background Information

• Patterned after the National Architecture

• Turbo Architecture® Format• Tied to same database• Allows consistency and accuracy at boundaries and for

services that cross boundaries• Farmington architecture is slated for update and inclusion

in that database

• Developed with contractual support

• Architecture Documents Use Visio ® Files for Service Packages depictions that define relationships and flows

Typical Service Package Depiction

Different Needs – Different Architecture Uses

Use of Architecture in the AMPA

Architecture Maintenance and Planning

What we had before……frustration!

• TIP and MTP program development was not “ITS Friendly”….. Project submittal and review process did not fully recognize all ITS elements

• ITS was project “TYPE” only; ITS elements included in other project types were not being recognized

Only the Major ITS developments were known, smaller- scale ITS Mainstreaming was not being captured

Our fix - ITS in MRCOG’s Transportation Program Development

NMDOT District ITS Planning and Operations

• NMDOT’s operations are distributed among Six Districts with support from a centralized G.O.

• ITS Operations for the NMDOT is within the G.O.

• ITS activities and projects within the Six Districts are centrally coordinated and managed by the Department’s ITS Bureau

• Associated ITS Architecture(s) Reviewed

• District ITS Strategic Plan Developed • Reviewed Annually• Contains Mapping Attributes

District Strategic Plan Mapping Feature

District’s Strategic Plan Reviewed and Used to –

• Identify District ITS Projects and Deployments for TIP/STIP • Recurring Funding• One-time Funding• Project with ITS Elements

OR

• ITS Bureau’s Annual Goals and Objectives• Staff Resources• Operational Funds• Priorities

• Schedule • Needs-driven

• Used as a Performance Measure

Considerations when Developing

• Easy to Use

• No Impediment to Project Development Process

• Ties Projects Back to Architecture

• Ensure Compliance to23 CFR 940.11

• On-line Submittal and Training for PMs

• Process AdministratorsUse a Responsive CustomerService Model

• Patterned from Oregon DOT Model

• Another Opportunity to IdentifyNon-ITS Projects as Candidate ITS Projects
