With the construction of smart cities entering a new phase, it is necessary to broaden the requirements of traditional roads to provide efficient operation and maintenance (O&M) services. Existing road infrastructure systems fail to meet intelligent functional O&M requirements since they do not incorporate a unified method to organize and integrate road life-cycle spatio-temporal data. Capitalizing on the developments in AEC (Architecture, Engineering & Construction) and IS fields, this paper proposes a solution (ICT Artifact) for achieving urban road intelligent O&M following the Design Science Research (DSR) framework. The main contributions of this paper are: (1) proposed method for organizing, collecting and fusing spatio-temporal data of the road’s entire life cycle, based on extended COBie standard to facilitate the linking and interoperability of multi-source heterogeneous data; (2) new Road Operation and Maintenance Functional Requirements (ROMFR) from the perspective of smart cities, which provide a complete definition of road intelligent O&M functional requirements; and (3) based on ROMFR and a new generation of information technologies, the design and implementation of a system named RIOMS (Road intelligent operation and maintenance system) that supports the intelligent functional requirements. The proposed solution has been applied to Yanggao Road (Pudong New Area, Shanghai) as a case study to demonstrate its feasibility and validity. Specifically, the proposed ICT artifact has been utilized in handling typical scenarios of road O&M and its effectiveness has been assessed through survey questionnaire and smart city assessment system.

RIOMS：智慧城市中利用时空数据进行城市道路运营和维护的智能系统

随着智慧城市建设进入新阶段，需要拓宽传统道路的要求，提供高效的运维服务。现有的道路基础设施系统由于没有统一的方法来组织和整合道路全生命周期时空数据，无法满足智能功能运维的要求。结合AEC（建筑、工程与施工）和IS领域的发展，本文提出了遵循设计科学研究（DSR）框架实现城市道路智能运维的解决方案（ICT Artifact）。本文的主要贡献是：（1）提出了基于扩展COBie标准的道路全生命周期时空数据的组织、采集和融合方法，以方便多源异构数据的链接和互操作； （2）智慧城市视角下的新道路运维功能需求（ROMFR），提供了道路智能运维功能需求的完整定义； (3)基于ROMFR和新一代信息技术，设计并实现了支持智能化功能需求的RIOMS(道路智能运维系统)系统。该解决方案已以上海浦东新区杨高路为例进行应用，验证了其可行性和有效性。具体而言，所提出的ICT工件已用于处理道路运维的典型场景，并通过调查问卷和智慧城市评估系统评估其有效性。
