INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS

Learning Objectives  Definition of ITS  Importance with respect to the future

of transportation  Projected ITS infrastructure benefits  Major ITS areas  Required skills

What are Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) ?  The application of high technology and computer power to current freeway, traffic, and transit systems to increase the safety and efficiency of the surface transportation system.  Have the potential to solve future problems.

ITS is...

...Traffic and Transit Management

ITS is...

...Traffic Signal Systems

ITS is...

...Global Positioning Systems

ITS is...  Weather

Information Systems

 Commercial

Vehicle Electronic Clearance

ITS is...

...Real-Time Traveler Information

Why is ITS Important?  Offers the next major leap forward in

improving safety, convenience, and productivity of our personal and commercial travel.  Critical as population and congestion increase, and land and funding for new roads decrease.

What are We Doing Differently?  Improving productivity through

advanced technology and management techniques  Operating existing programs more efficiently  Integrating systems  Providing travel information

Projected ITS Infrastructure Benefits (1996-2015) Accident Cost Savings (44%) Time Savings (41%) Emissions/Fuel (6%) Operating Cost Savings (5%) Agency Cost Savings (4%) Other (< 1%) Source : Apogee Report on Global ITS Benefits

What’s it Worth? Identified Benefits  Time Savings  Improved Throughput  Reduced Crashes and Fatalities  Cost Avoidance  Increased Customer Satisfaction  Energy and Environmental

Benefits

Commercial Vehicle Operations

Commercial Vehicle Operations

 Achieve safe, simple, and cost-

effective commercial vehicle operation through cooperation and advanced technologies

Commercial Vehicle Operations Benefits  Improved safety monitoring  Paper work reduction  Revenue collection improvement  Stop only high-risk

drivers/carriers/vehicles  Simplify/speed up/reduce roadside inspections  Tax payments, licenses, and permits

Commercial Vehicle Operations Benefits  Rover Vans  Perform safety inspections anywhere  Portable computers simplify inspections

 In-vehicle systems:  Equipment malfunction warning systems

 Other:  Electronic toll collection keeps vehicles

moving  Cost-effectiveness

Collision Avoidance Program

Intelligent Vehicle Initiative

 Merging of all vehicle-focused ITS

activities  Emphasizes the significant role of the driver in highway safety  Develop and made available driving assistance and control intervention systems  Applications for all types of vehicles on all types of highways

ITS Opportunities: Required Skills  Engineering  Electronics  Communications  Systems Integration

CONCLUSIONS APTS technology along with fleet management systems can make us to achieve sustainable and environmental friendly transportation for the 21 st century. ITS has been proved to be optimal solution to the enigma of building and operating transportation to meet growing urban travel demand in developed countries.
