From introduction: "This report documents the findings of a comprehensive transportation needs assessment study conducted at Acadia National Park between July 1999 and November 1999. This effort is part of the initial planning stage of an Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Field Operational Test (FOT) planned for Acadia National Park. This FOT is a joint effort by the U.S. Department of Interior (DOI) and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to evaluate the effectiveness of ITS applications deployed in a national park. Lessons learned here can be translated into ITS deployments in other rural areas. DOT's Rural ITS consultant team, led by Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), and a steering committee composed of local stakeholders, are leading this effort. The steering committee includes the following agencies and organizations: - Acadia National Park - Bar Harbor Chamber of Commerce - Downeast Acadia Regional Tourism - Downeast Transportation, Inc. - Federal Highway Administration - Friends of Acadia - Maine Department of Transportation - Maine Office of Tourism - Schoodic Peninsula Chamber of Commerce"
