5642 Trafficware’s latest version of its advanced traffic management system, ATMS.now 2.2, will support both of the widely popular 1691 Google Maps and 2214 Microsoft Bing Maps web-based mapping systems, says the company.  

As Trafficware’s product development is driven by customer feedback, ATMS.now 2.2 provides more flexibility and convenience selecting mapping capabilities from an array of resources versus being limited to a single source.  The latest release also includes enhanced analysis tools, the expanded measures of effectiveness (MOE) package that includes updated Purdue Coordination Diagrams, as well as ‘one-step’ installation for both client and server applications, expediting system implementation for traffic engineers and IT professionals.  

With the integration of Google Maps, ATMS.now supports Google Maps, Bing Maps and 50 ESRI (GIS) mapping utilities.  ATMS.now customers that use Google Maps or Bing Maps also now have the ability to convert GIS congestion segments and display pattern, cycle, sequence, offset and other pertinent real time signal timing data on the web-based maps.  The additional functionality, along with other enhancements, is available to all ATMS.now users under Trafficware’s maintenance and support program.

“A strong central management system is at the core of any traffic signal system,” explains Chief Technology Officer Darren Beyer. “That’s why we continue to invest heavily in innovative product development that positions ATMS.now as the most desirable central management system for traffic control.”

    Traffic management centres (TMC) have traditionally served to provide surveillance and responses to traffic incidents and recurring and non-recurring changes in road networks. Typically, a TMC collected field data from the roadway and transit infrastructure and provided the integration necessary for operators to see what was happening and then coordinate a response. Standard operating procedures (SOPs) guided operators on how to respond to a given situation. It eventually became impractical for TMC operat

    The increasing availability and accuracy of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is opening up low-cost options in many areas as David Crawford finds out. Boosting commercialisation of European global navigation satellite system (EGNSS) technologies for ITS initially depends heavily on demonstrating competitive and cost/benefit advantages obtainable from the deployment of EGNOS (the current European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service), and ultimately the EU’s Galileo constellation (see box).

ITS projects offer a cost-effective solution for many transportation problems. Individual projects are often not evaluated and such evaluations can be restricted by limited data, the ability of ITS to affect only a portion of the transport network, and by evaluation methodologies that were developed with more traditional transport investments in min
