Developed using the latest cloud-based technology, 189 Siemens says its Stratos system delivers scalable real-time traffic management, information and control, from basic monitoring to strategic control of complex urban traffic environments.

Proven traffic management systems have been integrated to create Stratos and provide streamlined, seamless user interaction with access anywhere on smart mobile devices as well as traditional control rooms. Siemens says Stratos is the complete solution for car parking, 537 VMS, strategic management and, in the future, adaptive traffic control or traffic management as a service.

With a range of different application modules, including journey time information, strategic network management, car park management and driver information, Stratos brings the latest technology to traffic management infrastructure, with flexible deployment options to address individual customer requirements.

Stratos includes a new journey time application module which uses ANPR or Bluetooth data to calculate journey times and also includes a data fusion algorithm developed by Siemens in conjunction with the Transportation Research Group at the University of Southampton.  It also offers effective strategic management through a simple, easy to use strategy manager tool that builds directly on experience gained from existing customer deployments and feedback, as well as accurate and up to date travel information and parking information, displayed on variable message signs.
