The drivers for government action include:
Traditional fixed-sensor systems, with their costly infrastructure, have been limited in their scope and applicability. With ITIS’ pioneering work on Floating Vehicle Data®, this has changed. Using data passively sampled from cellular phone networks and GPS devices, travelling across the whole road network, accurate and timely data is available at a much lower cost.
The traffic information produced by TrafficScience is more extensive than was hitherto available, and the sophisticated analysis within the software presents users with a greater range of types of prediction.
TrafficScience is faster to deploy on a project basis, and requires less commitment of capital funds than traditional systems.
Some of the applications supported by TrafficScience are:
Government agencies in the UK, continental Europe and the USA have worked with ITIS and our partners to develop applications that have addressed these areas. Read our case studies for information on individual projects. If you would like to investigate how ITIS can help you, please contact us.
