Course Summary
The transport system is a vital component of modern city planning worldwide. However, older and more traditional systems have an increasing number of complications and challenges as the demands of the transport systems have evolved. Integrating intelligent transportation solutions is incredibly effective in addressing these modern problems.
For established systems, it can be extremely difficult to address issues such as traffic flow and congestion directly through the system's physical infrastructure. The transition to utilising intelligent transportation solutions can greatly remove the pressure on the current physical systems. Intelligent transportation systems can reduce congestion, increase vehicle safety, and increase user accessibility.
Not only do intelligent transportation systems benefit their users, but they are also highly beneficial in reducing costs, increasing investment returns, and reducing negative environmental impact.
Intelligent transportation solutions use existing and emerging technologies, including commutation and information technologies, to improve traffic systems. Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) data communication is becoming increasingly important for this. As V2V technologies have developed, the use of self-driving and operated vehicles has risen dramatically.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the importance of intelligent transportation solutions.
- Review how intelligent transportation benefits modern society.
- Analyse the details of intelligent transport systems (ITS) architecture.
- Assess the process of planning, designing, and implementing intelligent transport systems.
- Conduct risk assessments and create risk management plans for intelligent systems.
- Implement risk mitigation measures for intelligent transport system projects.
- Understand the role of vehicle-to-vehicle communication.
- Utilise existing and new technologies to improve the level of service in traffic and transport.
This course is designed for anyone responsible for transportation planning, design, and development. It would be most beneficial for:
- Civil Engineers
- Traffic Engineers
- Urban Planners
- Project Managers
- Chief Technology Officers (CTOs)
- Chief Information Officers (CIOs)
- Strategic Development Managers
- Data Analysts
This course uses a variety of adult learning styles to aid full understanding and comprehension. Participants will review case studies of real-world transport systems and how intelligent solutions have been implemented to resolve major challenges.
They will be provided with all the necessary tools and equipment to carry out the various learning exercises. Alongside the overall case studies, participants will partake in presentations, group discussions and practical demonstrations to ensure they develop a thorough understanding of the taught content. They will also be granted the opportunity to create their own intelligent solutions to examples of traffic issues.
