Abstract:As an international showcase for intelligent transportation, AZTech has a mission of creating a regional intermodal transportation system through public and private partnerships. In working toward this lofty goal, AZTech's most valuable commodity has been information. Intelligent transportation is about more than just technology. It's also about giving travelers the information they need to make informed decisions about their travel plans. Traditionally, the availability and accuracy of traveler information has been severely limited. While periodic traffic reports have long been a staple of the electronic media, these reports tend to be both brief and general. For most travelers, obtaining information about their planned route has been a long shot at best. To reach more motorists and transit riders, the range of information and the network of distribution would require significant expansions.
