Abstract: The City of Los Angeles and Caltrans would like a simulation testbed for testing alternate traffic management strategies in the Santa Monica corridor. This study assesses the data available for such a simulation and describes data needs, potential sources, and data preparation required. It presents a work plan and resource requirements for acquiring the necessary data. The Appendix analyzes the conditions under which a simulation testbed is worthwhile. This study supported another PATH project, Los Angeles Smart Corridor Simulation Feasibility Study (MOU 270), which analyzed candidate models for the simulation and determined their data requirements. Key words: Data, transportation modeling, traffic simulation, Santa Monica Corridor, Smart Corridor
