Intelligent Mobility: Systems and Services
[ Book online ]
This course will provide detailed case studies (and their analysis) of particular areas of ITS implementation using a combination of University, industry and government experts. State of the art examples ITS systems, such as: electric vehicles; CVHS; wireless sensing networks; traffic management; info-mobility and location based services; eco-driving; road user charging; safety systems; intelligent infrastructure; e-logistics; smart-payment schemes; and technologies to support older and mobility impaired travellers will be covered.
At the end of the course, delegates will be able to:
- achieve an understanding of the basic elements of an IM system
- describe a wide range of current and advanced IM systems
- use knowledge from the two outcomes above to devise and design new IM systems
- guide and advise transport authorities and organisations about effectiveness of existing IM systems and services
- assess existing IM systems, comparing their effectiveness and how they meet needs
- devise and design new IM systems and services.
