9781681175393 English 1681175398 Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are vital to increase safety and tackle growing emission and congestion problems. They can make transport safer, more efficient and more sustainable by applying various information and communication technologies to all modes of passenger and freight transport. Moreover, the integration of existing technologies can create new services. ITS are the key to support jobs and growth in the transport sector. But in order to be effective, the roll-out of ITS needs to be coherent and properly coordinated. Intelligent Transportation Systems are those systems utilizing synergistic technologies and systems engineering concepts to develop and improve transportation systems of all kinds. Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) are advanced applications which, without embodying intelligence as such, aim to provide innovative services relating to different modes of transport and traffic management and enable various users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and 'smarter' use of transport networks. Intelligent transport systems vary in technologies applied, from basic management systems such as car navigation; traffic signal control systems; container management systems; variable message signs; automatic number plate recognition or speed cameras to monitor applications, such as security CCTV systems; and to more advanced applications that integrate live data and feedback from a number of other sources, such as parking guidance and information systems; weather information; bridge deicing systems; and the like. Additionally, predictive techniques are being developed to allow advanced modelling and comparison with historical baseline data.Intelligent Transportation Systems focuses on different ITS technologies and applications, and management practices with the expectation that the open exchange of scientific results and ideas presented in this book will lead to improved understanding of ITS technologies and their applications. The scope of this book includes the promotion, consolidation and coordination of ITS technical activities, and providing a focus for cooperative activities, both internally and externally.
