ITSOAM is designed as a sketch-planning tool to meet the diverse needs of New York State ITS coordinators in their economic assessment of expected user and operational benefits imputable to specific ITS elements in specific corridors. It is intended as a system assisting engineers and planners in screening worthy ITS deployments. The general modeling philosophy and framework of ITSOAM are presented, with an emphasis on the evaluation of basic information dissemination by variable message signs.
