Framework For Standardizing and Communicating Work Zone Event Data

FWHA developed this framework to assist transportation agencies and the work zone stakeholder community in establishing a standardized approach for digitally describing work zones and for communicating WZED with contractors, neighbor agencies, third-party data consumers, and other key stakeholders. The framework provides a conceptual architecture for a WZED warehouse and work zone data systems (WZDS) for collecting, storing, using, and communicating WZED. It also includes an introductory guide for the implementation of standardized WZED to assist agencies who have considered, but not yet begun, adopting the WZDx standard. 1
