This paper discusses the integration of PLANiTS (Planning and Analysis Integration for Intelligent Transportation Systems) components. The integration is achieved by defining a structure for representing transportation improvement actions, performance measures and environment in terms of spatial, temporal and user dimensions. A discussion is also presented on the key issues related to computer implementation including data dimension, a data dictionary, data modeling, and data transformations. A basis is developed for the next implementation of PLANiTS.
