Background

    INFLO is a collection of high-priority transformative applications 
identified by the USDOT's Mobility program that relate to improving 
roadway throughput and reducing crashes through the use of frequently 
collected and rapidly disseminated multi-source data drawn from 
connected travelers, vehicles, and infrastructure. The program's goal 
is to support the research and refinement of the INFLO bundle of 
applications and the potential deployment of an operational system.
    ATDM involves market-ready technologies and innovative operational 
approaches for managing traffic congestion within the existing 
infrastructure. The vision for ATDM research is to allow transportation 
agencies to increase traffic flow, improve travel time reliability, and 
optimize available capacity throughout the transportation network.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on the 18th day of January 2012.
