The World Road Association (2237 PIARC) used the World Congress to preview its online ITS and Road Network Operations knowledge-base.

The PIARC website hosts a fully updated version of the PIARC ITS Handbook which, according to Tom Kern of ITS America, is “the world’s first authoritative and easily accessible source of information on a diverse range of ITS and RNO topics”.
