TRAVTEK was a joint public/private sector project to develop, test, and evaluate an integrated advanced driver information system. For TRAVTEK, 100 Oldsmobile Toronados were specially equipped to provide navigation, real-time traffic information, route guidance, and motorist information services. Seventy-five of the cars were in a car rental fleet used by visitors to Orlando, and 25 cars were used by local residents and for controlled tests. The vehicles were operated in a 1,200 square mile area surrounding the city of Orlando, Florida. The project's development goals and objectives, management structure, initiators and champions, and selection and involvement of sponsoring agencies are described in the report, along with a description of the operational field test.
