Advanced Traffic Management System
The Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) field is a primary subfield within the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) domain. The ATMS view is a top-down management perspective that integrates technology primarily to improve the flow of vehicle traffic and improve safety. Real-time traffic data from cameras, speed sensors, etc. flows into a Transportation Management Center (TMC) where it is integrated and processed (e.g. for incident detection), and may result in actions taken (e.g. traffic routing, DMS messages) with the goal of improving traffic flow. The National ITS Architecture defines the following primary goals and metrics for ITS: * Increase transportation system efficiency, * Enhance mobility, * Improve safety, * Reduce fuel consumption and environmental cost, * Increase economic productivity, and * Create an environment for an ITS market. History In 1956, the National Interstate and Defense Highways Act initiated a 35-year $114 billion program that designed and ...
