This document provides an overview of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). It discusses the necessity of ITS in India due to rapid economic growth and increasing traffic. The main components of ITS include transportation infrastructure, vehicles, and traffic management. ITS aims to provide innovative services to different modes of transportation. Some applications of ITS mentioned are electronic toll collection, GPS, advanced traveler information systems, and automatic passenger counters. While ITS can improve safety, traffic flow and reduce costs and pollution, challenges include high equipment costs and potential hacking of control systems.

3. Introduction
 Intelligent Transportation system are advanced
applications aim to provide innovative services related
to different modes of transport and trafficmanagement.
 ITS enables various users to be better informed, make
safer, more coordinated and smarter use of transport
networks.
 ITS systems in which information and communication
technologies are applied in the field of road transport,
including infrastructure, vehicles and users, and in
traffic management and mobility management, as well
as for interfaces with other modes of transport.

4. Necessity of ITS:
India is going through a period of drastic change in the
transportation area due to:
 Rapidly growing economy.
 Insufficient and inadequate public transportation
system.
 Rising vehicle ownership levels
 Traffic congestion, insufficient road development
growing number of vehicles.
 Low speed, increased accident rates, increased fuel
consumption and increased pollution.
 Impossible to build enough new roads or to meet the
demand.

6. Parts of ITS
 I T S ARCHITECTURE:
Framework for planning, defining, and
integrating intelligent transportation systems.
 Benefits of Architecture:
Reduces time and resources required to
integrate the technologies to local needs
Helps identify agencies and jurisdictions & seeks
their participation

8. Communication Systems
 Effective and efficient operation of transit systems
relies on a communications infrastructure and vehicle-
based communications technologies.
 Communications systems are used to transmit voice
and data between transit vehicles and operation
centers, and to transmit commands between operators
and technologies.
 Transit communications systems are comprised mostly
of wireless technologies and applications.

9. Fleet Management and Operations
 These includes separate
technologies often are
combined in various
software packages, which
allow for the integration
of many different transit
functions.
 GIS allows transit
agencies to accurately
track where demand is
located in their service
area.

plate tracker and know its speed and tyre
pressure on highway using this Intelligent
transportation sysytem.It will help us
during emergency to tackle the situation
aroused at the site.

11. Applications of ITS
 Electronic toll collection(ETC)
 Global positioning system(GPS)
 Advanced traveler information system(ATIS)
 In-vehicle transit information system
 Automatic passenger counter

12. Electronic Toll Collection
 Non-stop toll
facilities and
segregated traffic
management.
 Electronic payment
by means of
contactless smart
cards to promote fast
passage through the
toll lanes.

13. Global Positioning System
 A system of satellites,
computers, and
receivers in which
traffic data is
incorporated in the map,
the driver can get the
fastest route, can know
the position of the
signals ahead, predict
traffic jams, etc.

14. Advanced Traveler Information
System
 It helps to save the travel time, Reduce cost reliability,
more comfort to travelers, gives safety and security.
 The information which the travelers want are of both
static and dynamic. Static information includes routes
and schedules. Whereas dynamic information includes,
traffic conditions, real-time transit schedules,
incidents, weather, parking etc.
 Transportation Management Centers respond to real-
time traffic conditions, control which lanes may be
used, traffic signal timing.

15. Advanced Traveler Information
System:

16. Automatic Passenger Counter
 The APC automatically records the number of
passengers, time and location of each stop as
passengers get on and off the bus.
 The APC can collect data, with a reduction in time,
cost, and effort by means of infrared beams at the
doors or pressure sensitive mats on the steps.
 With the information provided by the APCs, transit
planners can make changes to routes and schedules
that better serve the transportation needs of their
community.

19. ITS Technology
Proximity Sensor Ramp Metering
During travelling if some car is
about to collide sensor do gives a
signal that a car is about to hit us as
a caution to correct it.

20. Advantages of ITS
 Improved safety
 Better traffic flow
 Lower travel cost
 Better environmental quality
 Increased business activity
 Greater user acceptance
 Better travel information
 Better planning information

21. Disadvantages
 Difficult to use in mixed traffic
 Preliminary difficulties in understanding
 ITS equipments costly
 The control system software could be hacked by
hackers

22. Conclusion
 The use of I T S in some developed countries like America, Japan and
England has given them high progress in the field of transportation and
helped them in their economic Progress.
 The traffic congestions, rate of road accidents, wastage of fuels will
decreased to a large extend.
 This gives the people of the country a more economic mean of
transportation with advance information of transits.
 Hence with much more interest and advanced research in the field of
I T S, it can be implemented in our country and can prove to be the
solution of the traffic problems including traffic congestion, air
pollution and traffic accidents.
