Abstract

This research provides applications of advanced information in road transport operations with the help of computer and communication technologies referred to as intelligent transportation systems (ITS). In this research, the authors develop a prototype of Advanced Travel Information Systems (ATIS) providing information to drivers on the Sun Yat-sen National Freeway about their location and alternative routes in the highway system. A prototype is also developed of Advanced Public Transportation Systems (APTS) providing public bus users with dynamic information about bus location and providing public bus manager monitoring systems to improve fleet management. With the bus location and speed information, the system provides the speed information of the national freeway alternative routes to the drivers. Both APTS and ATIS are based on Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) with Global Positioning System (GPS).
