Intelligent Transportation System#REDIRECT Intelligent transportation system Intelligent transportation systemThe Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) program is an initiative of the United States Department of Transportation to add information technology to transport infrastructure and vehicles. It aims to manage vehicles, loads, and routes to improve safety and reduce vehicle wear, transportation times and fuel costs. The ITS program was originally called Intelligent Vehicle/Highway Systems. Intelligent Transportation Systems are a set of related technologies, including: * archived data **archived data mart **archived data warehouse **archived data virtual warehouse * advanced public transit systems **transit vehicle tracking **transit fixed-route operations **demand responsive transit **passenger and fare management **public travel security **transit maintenance **multi-modal co-ordination **en-route transit information ** multi-modal connection protection * advanced traveler information systems ** in-vehicle navigation systems ** variable message signs **broadcast traveller information **Traffic Message Channel **Vehicle Information and Communication System **interactive traveller information **autonomous route guidance **dynamic route guidance **ISP-based route guidance **traffic estimation and prediction **traveller services payment and reservation **ride matching **in-vehicle signing **Intelligent Speed Adaptation ** Floating Car Data * advanced traffic management systems ** ramp meters ** traffic control **traffic network flow monitoring **probe-based flow monitoring **surface street control **highway control ** HOV lane management **traffic information dissemination **regional traffic control **incident risk prediction system **predictive demand management ** electronic toll collection **Automatic number plate recognition ** emissions management **virtual TMC and vehicle-based sensing **basic at-grade crossing control **advanced at-grade crossing **modal operations co-ordination **electronic parking payment and parking facility management **reversible lane management **road weather information system **regional parking management **roadway environmental sensing **roadway and weather data fusion **environmental information dissemination **roadway micro-prediction **maintenance fleet management **smart work zones **dynamic roadway warning **variable speed limit and enforcement **signal enforcement **mixed use warning systems **automated non-vehicular road user protection * advanced vehicle safety systems **vehicle safety monitoring **driver safety monitoring **longitudinal warning systems **lateral warning systems **intersection collision warning **pre-collision restraint deployment **sensor-based driving safety enhancement **longitudinal collision avoidance **lateral collision avoidance **intersection collision avoidance **automated vehicle operation * automated highway systems * commercial vehicle operations **fleet administration **freight administration **electronic clearance **commercial vehicle administrative processes **international border crossing clearance **weigh-in-motion (WIM) **roadside CVO safety **on-board safety monitoring **CVO fleet maintenance **hazardous material planning and incident response **freight in-transit monitoring **freight terminal management * electronic payment ** electronic toll collection ** electronic fare collection ** DSRC * emergency management systems ** enhanced 911 **emergency response management **emergency vehicle routing **personal security and mayday systems **disaster command and control **disaster information dissemination * intelligent vehicles ** adaptive cruise control * automatic vehicle identification * automatic vehicle location Most advanced surface transportation technologies now are pitched under the ITS rubric. In Europe, it is often called Telematics. ==External links== * http://www.sbd.co.uk - SBD * http://www.its.dot.gov/ - U.S. DOT's ITS website. * http://faculty.washington.edu/~jbs/itrans/ - site run by Professor Jerry Schneider at the University of Washington with best set of links to innovative transportation projects worldwide * http://www.itsa.org - this is an industry sponsored .org, with a relatively short-term view * http://www.5es.co.uk - Reverse Logistics Transportation Intelligent transportation system"When these systems were first introduced, some drivers resisted them, viewing them as a way for management to spy on the driver. Only a foolish management would use it this way. ... If management treats drivers as the heroes they often are" -- Is this NPOV? Management must be foolish, then. UPS used this system to unionbust by tracking when trucks would meet up, thus determining that drivers were talking to each other. User:Graft ==TMC means what now?== With regards to the "Virtual TMC", is that a repeat of TMC meaning Traffic Message Channel, or is it the TMC that stands for Traffic Management Center and is synonymous with TOC (Traffic Operations Center)? Should probably be clarified...User:The Literate Engineer 00:51, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC) See other meanings of words starting from letter: IIA | IB | IC | ID | IE | IF | IG | IH | IJ | IK | IL | IM | IN | IO | IP | IR | IS | IT | IU | IW | IX | IY | IZ |Words begining with Intelligent_transportation_system: Intelligent_Transportation_System Intelligent_transportation_system Intelligent_transportation_system Intelligent_Transportation_Systems Intelligent_transportation_systems |
