A process is described that was developed by the New York State Department of Transportation to identify potential areas around the state for location of new weigh-in-motion sites. The procedure uses geographic information system (GIS) technology to synthesize census areawide travel and business data with linear highway system traffic and vehicle classification data from the Department’s computer inventories. The conclusion is that GIS is a powerful tool for synthesizing and displaying diverse data sets for use in solving engineering problems.
