It will contain information about demand, use and attitudes and will cover all modes of transport. It is complementary to various other databases about transport facilities in London, and will have facilities to cooperate with them.
This document presents various issues relating to the design and use of such a database. It considers the objectives of the database, the use and users of the database, the main requirements for features and functionality (with considerable detail in some areas), and some technologies relevant to the implementation. It is the main output from a design study to investigate the architectural and functional characteristics required for the database.
This report does not attempt to make estimates of costs for the various task components proposed, since it has not gone into that level of detail on implementation. The review is wide-ranging and LATS may wish to adapt the programme considerably. Once LATS has developed its' more detailed requirements, it will be appropriate to establish the cost estimates.
