Utilizing real-time and archived traffic data from HERE
Technologies – a global leader in mapping and location platform
services – iPeMS provides Transport Canada with analytics and
visualizations for car and truck-based traffic data.
Transport Canada has access to powerful iPeMS features including:
dynamic maps to support detailed traffic analysis; features to help
identify and mitigate bottlenecks and congestion; animations to analyze
events and optimize response plans; historical trend reports and
congestion charts to track reliability and support planning; and easy
analysis of major Canadian roadways.
The Transport Canada instance of iPeMS is powered by iPeMS’
next-generation platform, which features advanced capabilities,
including the ability to ingest a wider range of information, such as
data from connected and autonomous vehicles. The fully enhanced platform
will be released later this year.
“It is our honor and privilege to support Transport Canada’s goal of
improving the performance of its roadways, as well as the safety and
quality of life of the travelling public,” said Scott Perley, vice
president of Transportation Systems at Iteris. “With the implementation
of Iteris’ advanced iPeMS platform, Transport Canada will be able to
apply analytics to make Canada’s roads safer and more efficient on a
national scale.”
Transport Canada joins over 20 government agencies and municipalities
throughout North America, including the South
Carolina Department of Transportation, the Utah
Department of Transportation, the Virginia
Department of Transportation, the California Department of
Transportation and the City
of Toronto, that use the powerful analytics and visualization
capabilities of iPeMS to manage, measure and optimize complex
transportation networks.
