511 Init has taken another step into the French market with the acquisition of the assets of LC Consultant and its public transport rostering and dispatching software, Webus.

Init has already been working with LC Consultant in Greater Avignon on a project which includes the installation of Init’s intermodal transport control system, Mobile-ITCS, including planning and depot management systems which have been interfaced to the Webus system.

The LC Consultant team will remain based in Saint-Cloud, near Paris and will retain its current activities in order to ensure continuity of established customer relationships through the years, while reporting to Init subsidiary initperdis, which develops and maintains a dispatching system called Mobile-Perdis that manages and optimises duties planning, personnel and vehicle assignment and offers a vehicle and depot management system.

    What do recent vehicle recalls mean for future cooperative infrastructures? Anthony Smith takes a look. As ITS industry stakeholders converge on Amsterdam for the 2010 Cooperative Mobility Showcase, an unprecedentedly wide range of technologies will be on display demonstrating what might be achievable in the future from innovations based on Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications.

    Collection of traffic and transit data has grown significantly, combining with advances in connectivity and computational modelling to good effect. Desire to do more with less – to make budgets go further – has helped create a boom in the collection and study of traffic and transport data. Studies are becoming longer, greater in number and further in-depth as more intelligence is sought, plus, transportation agencies are looking to make processes of data collection less costly, or more efficient.

    Transport for Greater Manchester's David Hytch discusses the evolving roles of the public and private sector in managing and disseminating data. Data services for traffic management were once the sole preserve of public sector organisations, they being uniquely placed and equipped for the work involved. Now, though, this is changing. There is even a presumption in some countries that the private sector will take a greater, if not actually a lead, role in the provision of information for transport management

    High accuracy and reliability of GNSS location data is available using the EGNOS services to be ready for Galileo’s expanding satellite constellation. Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are increasingly a building block for ITS applications from road user charging and E-call to tracking & tracing of freight. Even while the European Space Agency is still assembling the Galileo constellation, EGNOS (the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) is already providing the basis of a range of ser
