Spatial Decision Making

 

What do freeways, roads, parking spaces, and traffic signals all have in commonother than forming our transportation networks? They exist over large geographies, and have inherent spatial relationships. These geospatial relationships must be analyzed, whether you're working on a freeway expansion project, or you're developing a smart city parking solution in a dense urban environment.

GIS Transportation Support: As-Needed Traffic Engineering San Diego

As-Needed Traffic Engineering Support

For the City of San Diego

Viutek Consulting is providing traffic engineering support to the Planning Department at the City of San Diego. Viutek supports Prime Contractor, Kimley Horn, with Public Outreach Strategy and Participation, Process Mapping and Analyses Methodologies, Research and Data Collection, Existing Conditions and Mobility Assessment, Preliminary Circulation Element Concepts, Circulation Element Alternatives, Future Conditions Analysis, and finally Community Plan Circulation Element Amendments. The overall budget for this project is $1.05MM, and the project is on schedule and on budget.


CAD-GIS Integration for Transportation Improvement Project

I-405 Improvement Project

Viutek provided ongoing GIS support during the RFP response process for the I-405 Improvement Project from SR-73 to I-605, a $1.9 Billion project. Viutek developed a GIS application that allowed the I-405 Improvement Team to work through hypothetical scenarios and immediately determine the effects that changes would have on particular areas. In February, 2017 the team was awarded the I-405 Improvement Contract. Read a case study about Viutek's involvement with the I-405 Improvement Project from SR-73 to I-605 here.


San Diego Parking Classification GIS Study

San Diego Parking Study

Viutek is working to classify the City of San Diego's curbside parking with sub-foot accuracy. Using GPS devices to draw polygons with high accuracy, Viutek is collecting curb classification data (ie. 30-minute parking, 2-hour parking, etc.) that may be used in conjunction with the City’s new City IQ Nodes, which are IoT sensors to be installed on street lighting infrastructure. Viutek also supported the deployment of said Intelligent Nodes, ensuring optimal distribution dependent on a series of factors including pedestrian safety, traffic, parking enforcement, and crime. 


3D GIS Visualization

3D Viewshed Analysis

 Viutek is working with SanDag on an Intelligent Transportation Systems contract to create a 3D visual simulation of mobility hub improvements for the Oceanside Transit Center, a prototype site identified in the Regional Mobility Hub Implementation Strategy. The 3D visual simulation will consist of up to eight views of the immediate transit station area and other points within the five-minute walk, bike, and drive access sheds. Viutek is providing GIS data development and analysis services in order to inform the data needs for the visualization development for the mobility hubs. Using Google Earth and Google Street View to estimate building heights and confirm building footprint accuracy, Viutek imports footprint data into Esri CityEngine software, and hands it off in a variety of desired formats to contribute to the digital visualization development.
