2009 09/01/2009 06/22/2009 91 The Portland Oregon Regional Transportation Archive Listing (PORTAL) is the official transportation data archive for the Portland metropolitan region. PORTAL is being developed at Portland State University (PSU) by students and faculty in the Intelligent Transportation Systems Laboratory in cooperation with the Oregon Department of Transportation, Metro, the City of Portland, TriMet and other regional partners. PORTAL contains almost one terabyte of transportation-related data for the Portland metropolitan region. The data includes freeway speed and volume data as well as incident, weather, transit and freight-related data. In addition to the data archive, PORTAL has a web site that provides dynamic, user-customizable graphs and reports for analyzing transportation including plots of congestion, bottlenecks, speed maps and incident analysis. Presented here is a performance study showing how PostgreSQL and Linux handle the demands of all the PORTAL archive and web site. 06/22/2009
