About the AERIS Program
At the core of Federal ITS research is
connected vehicle research—a
multimodal initiative that aims to
enable safe, interoperable networked
wireless communications among
vehicles, the infrastructure, and
passengers’ personal communications
devices. This research leverages the
potentially transformative capabilities of
wireless technology to make surface
transportation safer, smarter, and
greener. The objective of the AERIS
research program is to generate and
acquire environmentally-relevant realtime transportation data, and use these
PO 00000
Frm 00112
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 9990
data to create actionable information
that supports and facilitates ‘‘green’’
transportation choices by transportation
system users and operators. Employing
a multi-modal approach, the AERIS
Program will work in partnership with
the vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and
vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I)
communications research efforts to
better define how connected vehicle
data and applications might contribute
to mitigating some of the negative
environmental impacts of surface
transportation.
About the AERIS User Needs Workshop
The purpose of this workshop is to
obtain stakeholder input on the
Concepts of Operations (ConOps) that
will be developed for the set of AERIS
Transformative Concepts.
Transformative Concepts are integrated
operational concepts that use V2V, V2I,
and other data and communications in
innovative ways to operate surface
transportation networks to reduce
transportation-related emissions and
fuel consumption. Transformative
Concepts are intended to change the
way surface transportation systems
operate, with an emphasis on combining
connected vehicle applications to
provide significant environmental
benefits. The AERIS Transformative
Concepts include: (1) Eco-signal
operations, (2) eco-lanes, (3) lowemissions zone, (4) eco-traveler
information, (5) support for alternative
fuel vehicle operations, and (6) ecointegrated corridor management. During
this workshop, the AERIS team will
facilitate interactive breakout sessions to
obtain stakeholder input on desired
capabilities, data needs, and modeling
needs. This valuable feedback will be
utilized by the USDOT to further define
the Transformative Concepts and
provide input into the ConOps. Input
from this workshop will enable the
USDOT in conducting future research
and modeling to determine potential
environmental benefits in a connected
vehicle environment. For more

the Transformative Concepts, visit:

Issued in Washington, DC, on the 8th day
of February 2012.
