Intelligent Transportation systems (ITS) A Background
Problems caused by traffic congestion worldwide has led to a high interest in the
area of ITS. Worldwide, traffic congestion has been increasing because of urbanization,
or the shift of population from rural (outlying) areas to cities. Population growth
and changes in population density has resulted in increased vehicle traffic, leading
to congestion. Congestion reduces efficiency of our transportation infrastructure
and increases travel time, air pollution, and fuel consumption.
