Abstract:In 2023, the Whatcom Council of Governments (WCOG) was awarded funding through Stage 1 of the Strengthening Mobility and Revolutionizing Transportation (SMART) Grants Program. This program, funded through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) and administered through the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT), funds purpose-driven innovation to build data and technology capacity and expertise for State, local, and Tribal governments, with the goal of using new technologies and approaches to target realworld challenges and create benefits. The program is structured in two stages, in which applicants initially seek Stage 1 Planning and Prototyping Grants. Selected projects are then eligible to apply for Stage 2 Implementation Grants, for which the Notice of Funding Opportunity is expected to be issued in Summer 2024. The purpose of this Stage 1 project is to identify technology options and to develop a complete implementation plan with cost estimates for a new Cascade Gateway Advanced Border Information System (ABIS). The existing system, known as the Advanced Traveler Information System (ATIS), is 20 years old with ageing hardware and software systems. As such, this Stage 1 project involves design only, and the ABIS will not be fully implemented until Stage 2 funding is secured.
The total size of the dataset is 24 MB. The Portable Document Format (PDF) file format was developed by Adobe Systems and represents two-dimensional documents in a device-independent and resolution-independent format. There are PDF readers available on many platforms, such as Xpdf, Foxit, and Adobe's own Adobe Acrobat Reader. PDF readers/viewers or online services for basic functions are generally free (for more information on .pdf files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/pdf-file-extension). File extension .json is associated to JavaScript Object Notation file format, a lightweight, text-based, language-independent data interchange format. JSON defines a small set of formatting rules for the portable representation of structured data. It is used by various applications as alternative option to XML file format. The data in a json file are stored in simple text file format and the content is viewable in any simple text editor (for more information on .json files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/json-file-extension). The .txt file type is a common text file, which can be opened with a basic text editor. The most common software used to open .txt files are Microsoft Windows Notepad, Sublime Text, Atom, and TextEdit (for more information on .txt files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/txt-file-extension).Desktop Services Store files, or DS_STORE Files, are Mac OS files that stores desktop attributes such as icons and colors. They are only used by Mac OSs and don't require additional software (for more information on .ds_store files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/ds_store-file-extension).
