PROJECT OVERVIEW
Develop a catalog of open issues and research needsPrioritize issues in catalog and consolidate into research projectsDevelop a roadmap of research activitiesDevelop a structure for maintenance of the roadmapSummarize project for dissemination

UNRESOLVED ISSUES FOR PUBLIC AGENCIES
Over 100 research questions
Planning
Infrastructure
Policy
Modal Apps

PANEL VOTING ON IMPORTANCE OF ISSUES
Topics in infrastructure operations were most consistently rated “critical”
Limited
consensus: votes of both “critical” and “not important” on many topics

INSTITUTIONAL AND POLICY
Business models for infrastructure deploymentPublic policy actions to facilitate implementationImplications of AV for motor vehicle codesHarmonization of state goals and regulationsFed/state/local responsibilitiesLessons learned from Safety Pilot and CV PilotsLessons learned from other tech rollouts (e.g. 511, Next Gen air traffic control)

WHAT
Review AV/CV roadmap RNS/RPS and new ideas
Maintain priority rankings, sort new RPS from Step 1
Draft new/modified RPS to advance to SCOR / DOT / CVPFS
Review and prioritize AV/CV RPS; advocate and coordinate funding agency
Submit RPS, RFP, task order descriptions
Track previous, on-going, and scheduled research; identify new ideas and issues
WHO
20-102 panel; oversight from FHWA, DOT, V2I coalition liaisons as appropriate
20-102 panel, in consultation with other funding partners
20-102 panel with support from AV/CV subcommittee of TSM&O research task force
20-102 panel with support from AV/CV subcommittee of TSM&O research task force
20-102 panel
20-102 panel; oversight from FHWA, DOT, V2I coalition liaisons as appropriate
WHEN
TRB Annual Meeting
Mid-February
1 month prior to TRB/AUVSI Automated Vehicles Symposium
TRB/AUVSI Automated Vehicles Symposium
By Sept 15 of each year (for 20-102 projects), other funding agencies have different schedules
November each year
HOW
Face to face meeting including existing contractors
Webinar
Champions for each RPS lead creation of draft, committee review
Formal component of summer meeting agenda; 20-102 panel finalize RPSs for task orders, coordinated with CVPFS and DOT ID/IQ managers, for complementary funding sources
Formal submission process of updating task orders / extending existing 20-102
Presentations by current research teams and entities at webinar or face-to-face meeting of TSM&O research task force, DOT, JPO, CVPFS
