Presentation Outline 1. ITS Background and Objectives 2. ITS Framework and Results 3. The 2012 Context and Challenges 4. A different Paradigm 5. Your thoughts? ITS Canada June 2012
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) Background 1. Initiated in the early 90 s 2. ITS a responds to: Congestion Energy Environment Safety 3. Cost/challenges of of deploying technology ( e.g. Traffic control systems) 4. Led by government ( U.S., Japan, Europe, Canada) Research Planning Pilots/Demonstration Projects 5. World wide network of ITS Associations ITS Canada June 2012
What is ITS? Intelligent INTEGRATED Transportation Systems Systems the application of advanced sensor, computer, electronics, and communication technologies and management strategies in an integrated manner to improve the safety and efficiency of the surface transportation system
What is ITS? Transportation Association of Canada June 2012
ITS FRAMEWORK (ARCHITECTURE) Transportation Association of Canada June 2012
Objectives of ITS 1. Efficiency Increase vehicular capacity Strategic traffic management Networks Corridors Route, time and mode choices Traveller information 2. Safety Collision avoidance Roadway condition warning (traffic, weather, animals, etc.) Mixed use warning (pedestrians, cyclists, etc.) 3. Environmental Reduce Emissions and consumption Transportation Association of Canada June 2012
Objectives of an ITS Architecture and Planning Reduce cost and time to deploy Maximise value from the investments: Standards Common data structures Interchangeable devices Interoperable subsystems Framework for interagency cooperation ITS Canada June 2012
Scope of ITS Traffic Management (ATMS) Traveller Information (ATIS) Public Transportation Management ( APTS) Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO) Emergency Management (EMS) Advanced Vehicle Safety Systems (AVS) Transportation Association of Canada June 2012
ITS Framework Physical Architecture ITS Canada June 2012
What is an ITS Architecture? a common framework for planning, defining, and integrating intelligent transportation systems. Traffic Management Subsystem Communications ITS Canada Roadway Subsystem June 2012

Current Status National and Regional ITS Architectures/Strategic Plans Many standards developed Various solutions deployed Agency specific Implementation times often extended Significant developments in foundation elements: Digital mapping Mobile commuting In vehicle/personal navigation systems Communication infrastructure Outcome A number of independent ITS systems ITS Canada June 2012

THE ITS CONTEXT 2012
ITS - Context 2012 Transportation Funding (VMT) Security Trade Corridors Rapid Technology Development Smart phones Social Networks Crowd Sourcing Public Expectations Generation Y Connected Vehicle Smart City
ITS Challenge Costs Responding to unique needs (?) Funding models Government Capital versus Operating funds Time to deploy Still measured in years (design, bid, build, fix, adapt) Agency/Mode centric Legacy limitations Our system doesn t do that Institutional inertia IT rules and regulations we don t do it that way
THE OPPORTUNITY
Change the Paradigm - Outsource : Design, build and operate: P3: Services via The Cloud
The Cloud Non dedicated technology to deliver services to a wide array of end users (SaaS) End users access applications through a browser with the business application is housed at a remote location; Shared resources - economies of scale ( e.g. a utility) Quickly access new services Payment is for the service SLA s Does it apply to ITS?
