ARTIMIS is the freeway management center for the Greater
Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area.
ARTIMIS recently transitioned from a UNIX platform to a PC
platform. This was for the sake of uniformity for equipment maintenance and
operation in a larger organizational scale (Ohio Department of
Transportation as a statewide agency). ARTIMIS uses fiber optic cable,
telephone communication, and now some wireless communication to field
devices. New technology has been a tremendous benefit for freeway management
centers.
The presentation consists of a video highlighting the
operation of all the ARTIMIS components, followed by a discussion in further
detail and a question and answer period.
