RSSA new report from 7527 Research and Markets, M2M Communications and Intelligent Transportation Systems - Markets, Standardisation, Technologies, addresses a relatively new trend in the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) development - its dependence on the progress in machine to machine (M2M) communications.

The report concentrates on specifics of M2M communications and the necessity to design communications technologies that agree with M2M specifics. The M2M industry, standardisation, specifics and markets are addressed. Properties of M2M ITS applications are analysed.
 
The report shows that the ITS segment of the M2M communications market is strong and growing fast. It predicts that in a couple of years, there will be billions of M2M networked sensors that serve auto, location, traffic surveillance and monitoring and other ITS applications, communicating information that can help to cope with multiple issues on roads, saving human lives and contributing to the growth of our economy.

    InfoConnect delivers accurate travel information on all levels
    Deryk Whyte provides an overview of how the New Zealand Transport Agency's InfoConnect concept was developed. Historically, the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) (formerly Transit New Zealand) has faced challenges in communicating effectively with road users, its customers, about highway-related events or incidents in a timely, accurate manner. Prior to 2007, Transit relied on a third-party organisation to collect and disseminate national road condition information. This often resulted in incomplete infor
