UK software firm 1Spatial is to supply Arizona Department of Transport (AZDOT) with its 1Integrate software to enable it to certify and integrate its own road network information with regular updates from multiple contributing government bodies within the state.

1Spatial’s 1Integrate technology will enable AZDOT to automatically quality assure the information it receives from the combination of fifteen counties and seventeen public-safety answering points (PSAPs) by validating it against a set of pre-defined business rules.

It will also be able to match new data submissions against the current version of the road network to identify changes in geometry and other attributes and apply these changes. This new process will save them a significant amount of time and money over a manual process and also ensure the accuracy of the state-wide data map.

    A Mobinet pilot is combining onboard weighing with V2X comms to streamline vehicle weight enforcement. David Crawford reports. Pan-European, cross-border weigh-in-motion (WIM) for trucks is now a practical possibility, following successful Scandinavian trials within the EU-co-funded Mobinet (Internet of Mobility) programme. New technology is using strain sensors, located on load-bearing components and routinely installed in truck fleet management systems.
