    1 UAV LiDAR Point Cloud Segmentation of A Stack Interchange with Deep Neural Networks Weikai Tan, Student Member, IEEE, Dedong Zhang, Lingfei Ma, Ying Li, Lanying Wang, and Jonathan Li, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—Stack interchanges are essential components of capturing the complicated structure of interchanges due to transportation systems. Mobile laser scanning (MLS) systems limitations of flying altitudes or road surfaces [4]. Unmanned have been widely used in road infrastructure mapping, but accu- aerial vehicle (UAV) is a thriving platform for various sensors, rate mapping of complicated multi-layer stack interchanges are still challenging. This study examined the point clouds collected including Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems, by a new Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Light Detection and with the flexibility of data collection. However, there are Ranging (LiDAR) system to perform the semantic segmentation more uncertainties in point clouds collected by UAV systems, task of a stack interchange. An end-to-end supervised 3D deep such as point registration and calibration, due to less stable learning framework was proposed to classify the point clouds. moving positions than aeroplanes and cars. To capture features The proposed method has proven to capture 3D features in complicated interchange scenarios with stacked convolution and from the massive amounts of unordered and unstructured the result achieved over 93% classification accuracy. In addition, point clouds, deep learning methods have outperformed con- the new low-cost semi-solid-state LiDAR sensor Livox Mid- ventional threshold-based methods and methods using hand- 40 featuring a incommensurable rosette scanning pattern has crafted features in recent years [5].

The task order for the Route 2/17 B Corridor Study was approved on February 23rd. Staff is holding a kick-off meeting for the project next week. Date and time has not yet been finalized. Staff will send out a notice early next week and include members of this committee in case those interested would like to attend. 2. Global Technologies will be holding a demonstration in Stafford (Route 17) on either March 28th or 29th on the Opticom Priority Control System which is a signal preemption system for emergency vehicles. Both the infrared and GPS systems will be demonstrated. A time and location will be determined in the next few days. Discussion Items • CMAQ/RSTP Project Submission: Dan Cole briefed the committee on an e-mail from Paul Agnello requesting new projects, limited available funding and the one project limitation FAMPO was seeking to impose. There was concern from Committee Members about the one project limitation. Mr. McLaughlin indicated that he would discuss the limitation with FAMPO. The Committee was shown several potential CMAQ projects. The Committee selected three projects and prioritized them. These included; 1) Roundabout at Old Plank Road & Andora Drive, 2) Turn Lanes at the Old Plank Road & Chancellor Road intersection, and 3) a southbound right turn lane improvement on Smith Station Road at the Courthouse Road intersection.

  • Introduction
    I-95 Access Study New Access to I-95 between Route 3 and the Rappahannock River 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background The George Washington Regional Commission (GWRC) and the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) are evaluating the possibility of constructing a new access point or interchange with I-95 in the City of Fredericksburg between the Rappahannock River and VA 3 (Route 3). A new toll parkway would intersect with I-95 near the existing rest area and proceed west and tie into Route 3 near Gordon Road (Route 627). Located midway between Washington, D.C. and Richmond, the George Washington Region of Virginia is the scene of intensive growth extending back several decades, as it has become a bedroom community to Washington, D.C. and, to a lesser extent Richmond. Since 1960, the regional population has more than quintupled, from 60,000 residents to nearly 325,000 residents. This hyper growth has manifested itself in rapid suburbanization and has unduly strained the surface transportation system of the Region, taxing the capacity of roadway arterials and collectors alike. None of these roadways has been impacted as much as I-95, a national lifeline and a vital Regional arterial. Interstate 95 traverses the George Washington Region for about forty-seven miles, through the Counties of Stafford, Spotsylvania and Caroline, as well as the City of Fredericksburg. At various places along its course through the Region, I-95 fails from too much traffic and too little capacity. This failure adversely affects the nation as a whole, but it directly threatens the economic well-being and quality of life of residents in the Region.

Introduction: Nashville, like many other cities, is experiencing rapid growth and must address increasing demands on current transportation resources. As a result, it is important for Nashville to use its existing traffic networks in the most efficient and effective manner. East Nashville’s intersection of Ellington Parkway, I-24, Main St, Spring St, and Dickerson Pike, nicknamed “Spaghetti Junction,” consumes over 85 acres of space with interchanges and unusable land. This is nearly equivalent to Atlanta’s Tom Moreland Interchange or L.A.’s Pregerson Interchange, the

    TOWN OF BARGERSVILLE NEWSLETTER VOLUME 9 AUGUST 2020 HAWK Signal at Harriman Avenue and Old Plank Road Highlights of HAWK Signal: • Traffic is only stopped as needed • Flashes red when traffic is required to stop and yield to pedestrians • Activated through push buttons, that allow crossing one leg at a time On Old Plank Looking West HAWK Signal Overview As part of the pedestrian improvements project along Old Plank Road the Town has installed a HAWK signal at the intersection of Old Plank Road/Harriman Avenue/Short Street. HAWK is an acronym and stands for High-Intensity Activated Crosswalk, this signal is solely for pedestrians to be able to cross busy intersections safely. This is not a typical traffic signal, traffic flows as normal until one of the push buttons at the intersection is activated which then stops traffic as needed, otherwise the signal stays dark. Once one of the push buttons is activated the timing allows for pedestrians to cross one leg of the intersection at a time, then the push buttons must be reactivated to continue crossing the other legs. Please see the next page for a overview of the intersection.

It was built as part of the 1910’s National Auto Trail system and was named for President Thomas Jefferson and inspired by the east-west Lincoln Highway. This is a sample itinerary of some of the sites to see and things to do in Natchitoches Parish along the original Jefferson Highway route. EXPLORE | Rebel State Historic Site & LA Country Music Museum 1260 Hwy. 1221 Marthaville, LA 71450 | (318) 357-3175 Set in the piney hills of northwestern Louisiana, the Louisiana Country Music Museum contains exhibits that tell the story of how various folk music traditions developed in this region--from early gospel and string band music to the country sounds we enjoy today. One of the most popular exhibits on display in the museum is the Louisiana Hayride exhibit, which discusses the history of the Louisiana Hayride program as well as its historic impact on country music. There are two rooms in the museum dedicated to the hayride, and its participants, particularly Louisiana natives. The museum contains costumes, instruments and pictures that have been donated by various country-western and folk performers, including Roy Acuff's fiddle and yo-yo, as well as one of Hank Williams Jr.'s shirts.
