Abstract

This study presents a framework for integrating planning and analysis in a computer supported environment that facilitates deliberation and consensus seeking. The planning process conducted with the aid of an intelligent facilitator benefits from on-line analysis capabilities that are integrated into a unified computer system called PLANiTS (Planning and Analysis to Integrate Intelligent Urban Transportation Systems). It is constructed around four components or bases: policy and goals, strategy and action, knowledge, and methods and tools. This proposed methodology involves extensive use of knowledge bases in assessing transportation actions.
