The 2012 ITS World Congress marks Gewi’s 20th anniversary of keeping travellers informed worldwide, and the company is exhibiting how its TIC connects systems, vehicles, and travellers.

TIC has been used in live traffic information systems since 1997, and is used worldwide by many types of organisations including government agencies, police, DoT’s, commercial RDS-TMC and TPEG service providers, automobile clubs, road operators, radio stations and car and device navigation manufacturers.

Recently, Gewi added the ability to distribute traffic data and images on the latest high-tech VMS signs which can show images as well as text. Visitors to the company’s stand will be able to see how this is achieved, as well as learn more about the many advanced features of TIC3 including mobile traffic data entry using the iPad.

As a commercial off-the-shelf software platform, Gewi says TIC provides a cost-effective, robust, and easily scalable alternative when compared to build-your-own systems. Its flexibility means it can be used for a wide variety of transportation projects including RDS-TMC, TPEG, data harmonisation and exchange, traffic and travel information services, parking information, navigation system testing, connected vehicles, work zones, radio data, and traffic news for radio.

    A new system could reduce the cost of implementing I2V communications across a city to less than that for a single intersection, as Colin Sowman hears. It may seem too good to be true but US company Connected Signals is offering city authorities the equipment to provide infrastructure to vehicle (I2V) communications for free. The system enables drivers to receive information about the timing of signals they are approaching via the EnLighten smartphone app (or connected in-vehicle display).

    Someone once likened predicting the future to ‘nailing a jelly to the wall’. With ITS, C-ITS and V2X technology progressing at such a pace, predicting the future is more akin to trying to nail three jellies to the wall – but only having one nail. And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne
