Tiivistelmä
Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) is a field that concerns the applying of information, communications and control technologies to improve the transport network and its operations. A part of this process is the utilization of vehicle telematics, i.e., the use of in-vehicle devices for the purposes of communication and data transfer.
This thesis focuses on the various aspects of intelligent transport systems. It introduces the main technologies of ITS, the focus points of national research on the area, and also some real-life applications currently either in use or in development. Thought is also given to the business challenges related to product-related services and multi-sector innovations, both of which are prevalent in the field of ITS.
The core of this thesis consists of a practical case study in business-to-business ITS. The case study involves designing and implementing an information system for gathering weighing data wirelessly from wheel loaders. The system was delivered to a Finnish company that does business in, e.g., supplying hardware for heavy-duty vehicles.
