Systems designed and deployed nationwide for real-time traffic management have resulted in a tremendous resource of data available for alternative uses. To be truly useful, however, the data must be archived and made available to users in a format that accommodates their specific needs. These needs may vary from operational tools supporting the traffic management center itself to off-line uses such as planning support and transit support. ADMS Virginia is a project to provide such an archive and the associated tools that will make the data within the archive useful to users from many different professional arenas. The project is being developed following a systems engineering approach involving multiple builds. An active stakeholder group is participating in the effort to ensure that the end products are useful. The design of the system began with a Concept of Operations for the entire project followed by specific functional requirements for each build. The first build of ADMS Virginia is deployed and undergoing testing and review by the project team, stakeholders, and FHWA evaluators. Build 2 Functional Requirements are also complete and software development is underway.
