Hazardous Materials Transportation Expert System (HaMTES)
The Hazardous Materials Transportation Expert System (HaMTES) was developed to provide straightforward and error-free application of hazardous materials transportation regulations. The interactive system is designed to give users access to knowledge and skills that previously could be obtained only from a highly trained and experienced expert in the hazardous materials shipping regulations. The HaMTES, Version 1.0, was based on the 1995 regulations. HaMTES, Version 2.0, includes the US regulatory changes recently enacted to align the US regulations with 1985 International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Safety Series (SS) 6. Version 2.0 also includes several other enhancements suggested during the beta testing of Version 1.0. As DOE funding allows, it is anticipated that HaMTES will be the core of the hazardous materials module of the Automated Transportation Management System (ATMS), which was developed to provide field offices and site contractors with the automated tools necessary for transacting the increasingly complex transportation management tasks. This paper describes the development of HaMTES, its operating environment and architecture, enhancements to HaMTES, and the use of HaMTES.
