Abstract:

In most urban areas of the world, particulate matter (PM) levels pose severe problems, addressed in several policy areas (air quality, climate change, and human health). PM presents multiple challenges due to the multitude of its sources, spanning many sectors of economic activity as well as nature, and due to the complexity of atmospheric processes involved in its transport and secondary formation. For the authorities, the goal is to assure minimal impacts of atmospheric PM levels, in practice represented by compliance with existing regulations and standards. This may be achieved through an air quality management plan (AQMP). In Northern America and in parts of Europe, comprehensive research programs have guided development of AQMP over the last forty years. This cumulated experience can be utilized by others who face the same problems, but have yet to develop their own substantial research base. The main purpose of the AQMP development process is to establish an effective and sound basis for planning and management of air quality in a selected area. This type of planning will ensure that significant sources of impacts are identified and controlled in a most cost-effective manner. The choice of tools, methods and input information is often dictated by their availability, and should be evaluated against current best practices. Important elements of the AQMP are the identification of sources and development of a complete emission inventory, the development and operation of an air quality monitoring programme, and the development and application of atmospheric dispersion models. Major task is to collect the necessary input data. The development of the AQMP will take into account: - Air Quality Management System (AQMS) requirements; - Operational and functional structure requirements; - Source identification through emission inventories; - Source reduction alternatives, which may be implemented; - Mechanisms for facilitating interdepartmental cooperation in order to assure that actions are being taken; - Institutional building and training requirements This paper offers a practical guide through the different parts of the air quality management and planning procedures.

Abstract:

AbstractQuality discourses help to legitimate professions. This article therefore addresses the crucial question of how quality can be framed in spatial planning. Based on the context of spatial planning in Austria, this article introduces a normative framework for quality in spatial planning that considers the four dimensions of content, planning methodology, planning process and legal compliance, and shows howthese four dimensions are interlinked. Furthermore, it discusses how quality can be enhanced by concerted governmental action and further education for planners. It is argued that planners might need to adopt a new role as 'teachers' in planning processes to facilitate societal learning processes in order to raise the quality of planning. Finally, it is concluded that the quality debate in spatial planning can be useful to calibrate expectations of planners and society to directly influence sustainable spatial development through spatial planning, to communicate achievements in planning, to raise awareness for sustainable spatial development, and to improve legal frameworks, planning methodology, and planners' training and further education.

Abstract:

The transition to future-oriented medium-term budget planning has been an important innovation in the budget process of Ukraine. Since then, the main budget indicators are calculated for the next three years with a forecast that allows for systemic reforms in several areas. This paper aims to identify problems of implementing budget planning for generating an envisaged and balanced budget in conjunction with the priorities of the state. The current status of budget planning and budget performance is analyzed by reviewing budget legislation, budget reporting, information-analytical and presentation data of state authorities and local governments, the experience of developed countries that have achieved some success in medium-term budget planning in terms of income and spending. The paper also reveals the features and advantages of medium-term budget planning based on the result; explores the approaches to transparent, effective, and high-quality use of budget funds with a limited potential of the state to increase tax revenues. The implementation of budget planning is due to the need for further development of the budget process in Ukraine towards increasing predictability, transparency, stabilizing the budget in the medium term, and solving important problems of efficient and high-quality use of budget funds for economic and social recovery.

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references. The report outlines details of research in distribution network development with consideration of costs due to quality. Network planning methods are diverse with the common objective of establishing minimum cost options without violating network constraints. The selected network alternative is directed to meet customer requirements. Network planning models have evolved from consideration of simplistic models to multi variable and more realistic approaches. It is not always possible to achieve the desired outcome because planning is a difficult and complex task. There are usually uncertainties due to vague or no information available about the long-term (15-20 years) planning. The uncertainties generally result in risks, which have to be sufficiently analysed before reaching planning decisions. The recently proposed Minimum Risk Criterion is not a preferred risk resolution approach because it suggests that utilities should not establish expensive networks due to cost risk. Uncertainty modeling approaches based on fuzzy logic are proposed as the solution for analysis of uncertain conditions where very limited information is available. Costs in distribution lines are usually due to capital investment and operating costs. Distribution capital costs are primarily due to cost of conductor, s ucture and insulator. The cost of conductor and structure varies with size and type. Insulator costs do not vary significantly with variations in insulator type and properties. Quality related costs are a relatively new concept in distribution costing and are developed in the research. They are primarily due to mitigation, condition monitoring and interruptions. Quality mitigation costs are defined in the mitigation cost models in Figure 4- 8 and Figure 4- 9. The impact cost values in the models were established on the basis of assumptions, which require further research. According to CTLab [12], quality-monitoring equipment costs could vary from R50, 000 to R250, 000. Interruption costs are incurred through penalty cost and revenue losses. The penalty cost is similar to the revenue loss cost in many respects but is incurred when the standard limits are violated. Revenue loss costs are applicable whenever the frequency or voltage deviates from the nominal. It may be preferred to accept revenue losses where mitigation is expensive.

Abstract:

Thesis (M.C.P.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Urban Studies and Planning, 2002. Includes bibliographical references (p. 147-149). This research examines practices that achieve an urban fabric unique to its cultural heritage by promoting innovation in local building industries while embracing notions of urban livability. Prevailing urban livability theorists argue that built form is a physical manifestation of the expression of culture and agree that cultural heritage is important to a community's sustainability and identity. The central hypothesis is that "Quality" in the built environment in Bhutan is accomplished only by employing traditional building practices. "Quality", as defined here, is achieved when two factors are satisfied: 1) the construction is equal to or above established standards and, 2) the construction practice possesses the distinct characteristics of the culture. This hypothesis is tested through five case studies of current buildings in urban centers and through various discussions with design professionals, construction practitioners, government officials and others in Thimphu, Bhutan. The Royal Government of Bhutan is at the forefront of cultural heritage initiatives and has been celebrated for its progressive Gross National Happiness (GNH) development vision, a document that articulates the criteria for defining the distinct characteristics of the Bhutanese culture. However, the government has been challenged to implement this vision while facing the rapid development of its nascent urban centers. As part of the conclusion, the thesis proposes the establishment of a research institute, The Housing Research Institute of Bhutan, for the study of responsible building practices in support of GNH. The mission would be to inform design, development and construction processes formulated from the collection and dissemination of information, promotion of knowledge exchange, and support of research on materials, regulation, management and design through building demonstration projects. The institute will act as a conduit for the convergence of information and priorities between industry, contractors, government agencies and the public. Alexis Anne Bennett. M.C.P.

Abstract:

Human and environmental well-being is the main goal of sustainable development. Quality of Life (QoL) which is often used to measure human well-being, constitutes existential factors, but excludes attributes of people and local environment. In the absence of people’s perception towards the environment and satisfaction associated with environmental features, QoL remains an incomplete expression of human well-being. This study includes attributes of people and environment and has defined a new QoL metric – environmental QoL (QoLe) – to measure progress towards sustainability at neighbourhood scale. The QoLe model includes environmental attributes, perceived neighbourhood satisfaction and environmental attitudes of people, and explores the relationships between them. The testing of the model involved field work in an ecologically sustainable development (ESD) and a conventional neighbourhood from south-east Queensland, Australia. In the ESD, protection and enhancement of the natural environment was emphasised and the built environment is designed to be environment friendly and sustainable. Majority of the residents demonstrated a Preservation (pro environmental) attitude and expressed an overall high level of satisfaction with their neighbourhood. The conventional neighbourhood lacked sustainable planning and design features. Majority of the residents demonstrated a Utilisation (pro-utilitarian) attitude and they were relatively less satisfied with their neighbourhood environment quality. The QoLe allows exploration of congruity/ incongruity between neighbourhood environmental quality and the level of satisfaction associated with them. It will provide policy planners, developers and designers with an understanding of the conflicting interests between the neighbourhood environment quality and individuals’ expectations based on their environmental attitudes. The study highlights that environmental and human well-being requires people-environment congruity.

Abstract:

An increasing number of companies are reporting their environmental performance, impacts, and activities. The objectives of such reports are many including, in particular, reacting to external pressures from company stakeholders demanding more information about environmental performance. This might also be matched by management requiring information to better run the business - hence an internal requirement for information that would then be available for publication. Because, this environmental reporting serves multiple objectives and satisfies different needs of different readers, it varies in the type of information provided, the scope and depth of material disclosed, presentation formats used, the credibility of the information provided and its overall quality. Although richness of report content, scope of topics covered, presentation and credibility of this content have all been used to assess the quality of corporate environmental reporting (CER), to date most prior studies have looked simply at the volume of and/or the types of information when assessing the quality of CER. Studies have used two main indices to measure disclosure quality; subjective analysts' indices and semi-objective indices. Subjective indices such as the Association of Investment Management and Research (AIMR), formerly the Financial Analysts Federation (FAF) disclosure ratings, are built on corporate disclosures' ratings weighted by a panel of leading analysts in each industry. In semi-objective indices, on the other hand, a pre-determined list of items (topics of disclosure) is developed and tested for their presence (absence ) and/or the richness of their content. It is noted that most disclosure studies adopt this second approach in the form of disclosure index studies, a partial type of content analysis. Other disclosure measures have included textual analysis such as thematic content analysis, readability studies, and linguistic analysis. However, there is no consensus about the best measure for assessing reporting quality. One of the most important limitations encountered in the disclosure literature is the difficulty in assessing the quality of disclosure (Healy and Palepu, 2001; Urquiza et al., 2009). For example, these studies identify three key limitations. Firstly, there is inherent subjectivity involved in the selection of the quality measure and in the coding scheme to assess this 'quality' generally researchers choose their own methods or proxies. Secondly, there is an ignorance of the quality perceptions of preparers and users of corporate disclosure. Hammond and Miles (2004) argue that we cannot assess the quality of disclosure independently of a detailed understanding of users' need of disclosure. Thirdly, it has been common to use annual reports (ARs) to assess the extent and quality of corporate responsibility disclosure, ignoring the other reporting media such as corporate responsibility reports (CRRs), websites, home advertisings, etc (Forst et al., 2005; KPMG, 2011). Thus considering the fact that robust, reliable, and replicable quality assessment is problematic, the objectives of this research are threefold. Firstly, to build a more representative quality model based on the findings of a questionnaire ascertaining the views of both preparers and distinct categories of readers of ARs and/or CRRs. Secondly, to apply this model to FTSE 100 CER in both ARs and CRRs to ascertain whether the proxies frequently used in prior literature yield similar results to those derived from this more complex model. Thirdly, to investigate whether the common use of ARs, rather than more detailed CRRs in assessing CER quality is giving a misleading picture of the level and richness of disclosure available to stakeholders.

Abstract:

Treatment planning standardization efforts were made for the Stereotactic Radiosurgery(SRS) program at the Jewish General Hospital, Montreal. A standardized dose objective template for SRS was made in collaboration with physicians in our clinic. A web based platform was made for radiotherapy research and data analysis. The web platform was made with considerations for ease of distribution and customizability. A plan report module was made for the web platform to automatically analyze dose statistics and generate SRS plan reports. The plan report module was well received by dosimetrists in our clinic and reduced the labour required in plan evaluation. A total of 35 approved treatment plans were imported into the web application for analysis. A quantitative metric, Quality Index (QI), was developed to measure SRS plan compliance to the standardized plan evaluation template. The results show increased average QI and decreased QI variation between pre-release and post-release of the web application. The validation of QI as a quality indicator of a treatment plan warrants further study. Des efforts ont ete fait envers la standarisation de la planification de traitements pour le programme de radiochirurgie stereotactique (SRS) a l'Hopital General Juifde Montreal. Un modele standardise d'objectifs de dose pour la SRS a ete construit en collaboration avec les medecins clinique. Une plate-forme web a ete programme afin de faire l'analyse des donnees de recherche. Le web a ete choisis comme hote de la plate-forme en raison de la facilite de distribution et d'adaptation des applications web. Un module de redaction de rapports automatique est inclue dans la plate-forme pour effectuer une analyse statistique de la dose pour chaque plan et ensuite rediger un rapport. Le module a ete implante en clinique avec succes et une reduction marquee de la charge de travail requise pour l'evaluation des plans de traitement pour la SRS. Un total de 35 plans ont ete approuve pour l'importation dans la plateforme web pour l'analyse de donnees. Un metrique quantificatif surnomme L'index de Qualite (QI) a ete developpe pour evaluer l'adherence des plans au modele standard construit. Les resultats demontrent une hausse du QI ainsi qu'une baisse de la variance entre chaque plans suite a l'implantation de la plate-forme web. D'autres etudes doivent etre performes pour valider le QI en tant qu'indicateur de qualite de plans.

Abstract:

AbstractQuality Management (QM) is responsible for overseeing all activities and tasks needed to maintain a desired level of quality. QM in Software Development traditionally has three main components: quality planning, quality assurance, and quality control. In many agile organizations, QM is becoming closely integrated with the DevOps organization. Quality Assurance (QA) is responsible for setting up the organization and its processes to ensure the desired level of quality. In an agile organization, this means that QA needs to be closely aligned with DevOps. Quality Control (QC) is responsible for the output, usually by implementing a test strategy along the various stages of the DevOps cycle. Quality Planning is responsible for setting up the quality and test plans. In a DevOps organization, this will be a continuous process (Fig. 30.1).

Abstract:

India’s urbanization rate has increased from 26% in 1991 to 35% in 2021, and it is expected to reach 41% by 2030 (World Bank 2022). In response to this, as the backbone of its growing economy, the country’s infrastructure development, particularly transportation development, has been heavily emphasized. The railway sector will see an investment of $715.41 billion by 2030. Along with a series of supporting government policies, an opportunity to expand the high-speed rail (HSR) network has been presented in India. From the viewpoint of the government, HSR is an effective tool to address the surge in travel demand because of its mass transportation, high speed, and high energy efficiency (Suzuki et al. 2022). Besides, HSR projects bring about a ripple effect on the Indian economy by generating local employment opportunities, catalyzing the steel and cement sector and galvanizing AatmaNirbhar Bharat (an initiative by the Government of India to make the country self-reliant) through the indigenization of technology (National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited 2022). From the perspective of communities and individuals, HSR improves their quality of life by offering a faster and safer transportation option for work and travel.

Full text

Abstract:

Ecological models provide crucial tools for informing many aspects of ecosystem restoration and management, ranging from increasing understanding of complex ecological functions to prioritizing restoration sites and quantifying benefits for project reporting. The diversity of ecosystem types and restoration objectives often precludes the use of existing models; as such, model development is commonly required to inform restoration decision-making. Index-based habitat models are a common approach for assessing ecosystem condition. These models relate habitat quality to species’ distributions. Habitat suitability (quality) typically ranges on a scale from 0 to 1. Habitat models have been developed to assess habitat suitability for specific taxa, communities, or ecosystem functions. Restoration-project timelines often require that these models be developed rapidly and in conjunction with many external stakeholders or partners. Here, the Toolkit for interActive Modeling (TAM) is proposed as a platform for rapidly developing index-based models, particularly for US Army Corps of Engineers’ (USACE) ecosystem-restoration or mitigation planning processes. The TAM is a consistent quantitative framework that allows for development of a generic platform for index-based model development.

Abstract:

This report presents the results of the H-CARE Pilot Survey for the four European Reference Networks (ERNs) that initated this study conducted by Rare Barometer: ERN GENTURIS, ERKNet, ERN Lung and eUROGEN. The goal of this study was to test the feasibility of measuring rare disease patients’ and carers’ experience with the care delivered by healthcare providers who are part of an ERN. A Topic Expert Committee composed of patient representatives, clinicians and managers from ERNs GENTURIS, ERKNet, Lung and eUROGEN selected a patient reported Experience Measure (PREM) questionnaire validated for chronic conditions, the Patient Assessment of Care for Chronic Conditions Short Form (PACIC-S). This questionnaire was administered by Rare Barometer, with the participation of hospital units that were members of the four ERNs of the pilot. This report presents the results of the pilot study for the 1,319 patients and carers who assessed European healthcare providers treating rare diseases affecting kidneys, lungs, the urogenital area and genetic tumour risk syndromes: Patients had a better healthcare experience when they were treated by hospital units that are part of a ERN. The PACIC-S showed good internal consistency and good construct validity in German, French, English and Spanish. But content validity was low as all aspects of care experience for rare diseases were not covered by the scale, showing that the PACIC-S did not fully capture the healthcare experience of people living with a rare disease. Recommendations for the development and validation of a new scale for RDs include planning onsite distribution of paper questionnaires in specialised hospital units, in addition to online distribution towards patient organisations and on social media, in order to reach a sufficient number of respondents for each ERN and language.

Abstract:

The Global Goal of ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all promotes equality in access to quality learning, supports economic development, improves health outcomes, empowers women and girls, and fosters global citizenship and peace. By reducing inequities in education, both in terms of access and quality, we can help to build a more equitable, prosperous, and sustainable world. This study provides a detailed examination of the progress of the Philippines in achieving Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG4) on quality education and lifelong learning opportunities for all. It sets the stage by outlining the Philippine educational policy landscape, including its legal and institutional frameworks. The analysis then progresses to a target-by-target review of SDG 4, highlighting the nation's accomplishments and ongoing challenges. Notable achievements include nearly universal primary education enrollment and increased secondary education participation. However, issues like high dropout rates and subpar learning outcomes remain. The Philippines has also seen growth in early childhood development (ECD) and pre-primary education enrollments, yet access for disadvantaged children is still limited. The country has policies to enhance access to affordable technical, vocational, and higher education, but the quality of these programs and their alignment with future skills needs improvement. Inclusive education initiatives exist, such as programs for learners with disabilities and indigenous communities, but challenges in ensuring universal quality education persist. A shift in education outcomes in favor of girls is observed, with boys now more likely to drop out than girls across various educational levels and girls doing better than boys in learning. While literacy rates appear high, the need to redefine literacy measurements, considering issues like digital skills, is evident. Progress in school infrastructure development is significant, especially with the K-12 rollout, but enhancing learning environments, including using technology for learning, remains crucial. The Philippines boasts a large teaching workforce, yet there is a pressing need to elevate teacher training quality and align it with future skill requirements. The study pinpoints critical improvement areas, including addressing the root causes of learning deficits, implementing an open data policy, and refining teacher training and workload. Concluding with a call to action, the study underscores the necessity of a comprehensive strategy to tackle educational challenges holistically, with integrated planning among the three main government agencies tasked to manage the sector. It suggests developing specific targets for inclusive quality education. This comprehensive review offers valuable insights and practical recommendations for stakeholders to ensure the Philippines fulfills its commitment to quality education for all by 2030.

Abstract:

As cities densify to meet environmental and economic goals, the equitable distribution of urban green spaces (UGS) becomes critical for fostering community well-being, promoting environmental justice, and enhancing climate resilience. This report presents a synthesis study conducted by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in collaboration with Nilsson Landscape, aimed at understanding the relationship between socio-economy and accessibility to UGS, to assess and enhance green equity in urban environments. The research focuses on Malmö specifically, and have involved Region Skåne as a proxy for other municipalities in southern Sweden, leveraging data on green space access, canopy cover, socio-economic indicators, and maintenance costs. The primary objective of this study was to establish a data-driven, replicable framework that quantifies green space equity at the city district level. Specifically, the research seeks to (i) identify key indicators of green space availability and socio-economic status that can be measured consistently across Swedish municipalities; (ii) develop a composite relationship (a matrix or an index) that integrates these indicators to provide actionable insights for urban planners and policymakers, and (iii) to test the applicability of this index in Malmö, illustrating its potential to guide future investments in UGS for equitable urban development. The research integrates three complementary initiatives: i. KSLA Project: A synthesis of socio-economic and green space factors relevant to equity in urban environments. ii. FoMA Project: Development and testing of green space indicators, including canopy cover, urban green space per capita, and distance to the nearest green space, in relation to socio-economic metrics like income, education, and employment. iii. Movium Partnership: Evaluation of the Green Equity Matrix, a tool that categorizes neighborhoods based on their socio-economic status (SES) and green space status (GSS), and explores policy implications and maintenance costs. The ambition to develop a matrix or an index aligns with international models such as the Tree Equity Score and Spatial Equity NYC but adapts them to the Swedish context, where socioeconomic factors and access to UGS are measured differently. Data sources include GIS-based analyses, municipal records, and socio-economic data from Statistics Sweden. All computations of UGS rely on open datasets, which are updated at varying frequencies but not always regularly. All the SES data is easily accessible and reliable, and available at DeSO level. A Green Equity Matrix was developed, including seven indicators ‘UGS per capita’, ‘canopy cover’, ‘distance to UGS’ as Green Space Status (GSS) indicators, and ‘age dependency’, ‘income’, ‘education level’, and ‘employment rate’, as Socio-Economic Status (SES) indicators. Each indicator was computed and combined into two individual indexes. All indicators are combined unweighted, meaning they are treated equally when combined. Contrary to widespread assumptions, our analysis reveals that neighbourhoods with lower SES often have higher GSS in Malmö. Lower SES neighbourhoods in Malmö were often developed around the 1960’es and early 1970’es (the Million Program), where larger parks and green spaces were prioritized. As such, we believe these areas have benefited from earlier planning efforts aimed at providing green amenities to balance socio-economic disadvantages, and that the effects of these efforts are still notable in a Swedish context like in Malmö. However, while higher GSS in lower SES areas is a positive finding, it does not necessarily reflect equitable quality or functionality of Summary green spaces. Socio-economic disparities might still influence the usability, safety, and maintenance of these green areas, affecting their actual benefits to residents. We calculated maintenance cost in DeSOs characterized by both low GSS and low SES. Here, costs range from 24 to 335 SEK per capita, with an average in Malmö being 448 SEK per capita. Even though we indicate a relationship between low SES and low maintenance cost, we recognise the need for better data, including a calculation based on actual use, rather than cost per capita. However, such data is not available today. The actual quality of UGS should be further explored and considered incorporated into or related to the matrix. This will ensure that green space interventions align with the needs and preferences of residents. In line with this, local governments’ capacities to develop such indices should be explored too. However, the use of accessible data in combination with relatively simple GIS-based socio-ecological analysis has been prioritised for this project. Thus, our proposed method does not require advanced GIS skills, making it accessible for all municipalities. The suggested method ranks neighbourhoods within a municipality or urban area, meaning the GSS and SES results cannot be directly compared across different municipalities or urban areas. However, metrics such as the percentage of neighbourhoods within each quadrant or within a certain standard deviation can still be used for comparisons with other municipalities or urban areas. Our new and nuanced understanding of the relationship between SES and GSS challenges the conventional narrative that socio-economically disadvantaged neighbourhoods lack access to green spaces. Instead, it highlights the need for context-specific urban planning and management that recognizes both the strengths and challenges of different neighbourhoods.

Full text

Abstract:

Groundwater resources development and the threat of future drought in Garfield County, southwestern Utah, prompted a study of groundwater quality and quantity in the environs of Bryce Canyon National Park and Bryce Canyon City in Johns and Emery Valleys. Water quality, water quantity, and the potential for water-quality degradation are critical elements determining the extent and nature of future development in the valley. The community of Bryce Canyon City is an area of active tourism and, therefore, of potential increase in growth (likely from tourism-related development). Groundwater exists in Quaternary valley-fill and bedrock aquifers (the Tertiary Claron Formation and Cretaceous sandstone). Increased demand on drinking water warrants careful land-use planning and resource management to preserve surface and groundwater resources of Johns and Emery Valleys and surrounding areas that may be hydrologically connected to these valleys including Bryce Canyon National Park.

Full text

Abstract:

Infrastructure in the Amazon has prioritized national development and other interests, which were generally tilted towards extractive activities (mining, energy, agriculture/cattle) and domestic industrial policies (e.g., Manaus Free Zone) rather than needs of local populations or environmental concerns, such as maintaining and protecting the high diversity of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, resulting in an unsustainable, low-quality development process. A new paradigm is necessary for adapting existing infrastructure, and for planning and building future infrastructure, at both national and subnational levels. This new paradigm should be based on the concept of a spatial configuration and include the consideration of nature-based solutions and Indigenous and local knowledge (ILK).

Abstract:

Traffic Incident Management (TIM) is a FHWA Every Day Counts initiative with the objective of reducing secondary crashes, improving travel reliability, and ensuring the safety of responders. Agency roadside cameras play a critical role in TIM by helping dispatchers quickly identify the precise location of incidents when receiving reports from motorists with varying levels of spatial accuracy. Reconciling position reports that are often mile-marker based with cameras that operate in a Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) coordinate system relies on dispatchers having detailed knowledge of hundreds of cameras and perhaps some presets. During real-time incident dispatching, reducing the time it takes to identify the most relevant cameras and view the incident improves incident management dispatch times. This research developed a camera-to-mile marker mapping technique that automatically sets the camera view to a specified mile marker within the field-of-view of the camera. A new performance metric on verification time (TEYE) that captures the time it takes for TMC operators to have the first visual on roadside cameras is proposed for integration into the FHWA TIM event sequence. Performance metrics that summarize spatial camera coverage and image quality for use in both dispatch and long-term statewide planning for camera deployments were also developed. Using mobile mapping and LiDAR geospatial data to automate the mapping of mile markers to camera PTZ settings, and the integration of connected vehicle trajectory data to detect incidents and set the nearest camera view on the incident are both discussed for future studies.
