A WEB-GIS for the choice of the path in the regional greenways
2010
Tourists seem less interested in the traditional sites of mass tourism, which has damaged local identities. The tourist reclaims the old function of journey, intent on widening his knowledge of the surrounding territory, while respecting the social and cultural equality of other population. This study outlines a methodology to identify the generalized cost for a system of no-motorized transport in order to determine the modal choice of users and the route of minimum cost to reach the desired destination. Within the information users, a key role is played by telematics now widely accessible through web interfaces. With the word greenways we mean the network for the no-motorized constituted b…
Management of intelligent transport systems applied to sustainable development of motor vehicle transports
2021
The scientific paper presents a concrete research carried out by the authors in order to implement technical concepts, so that those interested in this field can learn about a certain way of exposing the problems with regard to the sustainable development of road transport. The use of computer means in the field of motor vehicle transport have taken on a special magnitude in recent times, and the Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), also known as telematics systems used in the field of transport, comprise a wide range of tools and services deriving from ITS technologies, by using communications and information technology. Below we present a technical and managerial study with engineering nu…

2021
The scientific paper presents a concrete research carried out by the authors in order to implement some concepts of a technical nature, so that those interested in this field can get acquainted about a certain way of exposing the problems regarding the actions taken by the European authorities, regarding the implementation of electric vehicles at the level of some EU states, in the context of the sustainable and durable development of the European road transport system. Below we present a technical and managerial study with engineering nuances, through which readers can look at and understand the concept of sustainable development of this sector in a global context, through which we will de…
Applications of ARTIST for advanced telematics services
2007
This paper describes how telematics, also known as Information and Communications Technology (ICT), integrates telecommunications and informatics technologies to send, receive and store information via telecommunication devices. The Intelligent Transport System (ITS) is the application of telematics to the transportation area so that it allows the provision of advanced services in the mobility area in order to reinforce the efficiency, safety and effectiveness of the transportation systems. More efforts have been carried out in recent years to support the spreading of ITS and many projects have been financed in the world and, in particular, in Europe. One of the most critical problems which…
VIGIL System: A Computer Vision-Based AID System. Evaluation in a Ring Motorway Section in Madrid
1994
Abstract The VIGIL system is an Automatic Incident and Congestion Detection System based on computer vision technology tor motorway applications. VIGIL is constituted by two main modules, the Local Sensor Module and the Central System module. The objective of this paper is to describe the VIGIL Central System functions, mainly the alarm filtering and management capabilities, and to present the field trial currently carried out in Madrid within the ARTIS project (Advanced RTI in Spain) supported by the Tranport Telematic Programme of the EC.
MediaDASH Tool: Plataforma Web para la Codificación, Difusión y Recepción de Videos DASH
2017
[ES] Hoy en día el tráfico de video de internetsignifica alrededor del 65-70% del tráfico total. Se prevéque en 2019 aumente hasta el 80%. Debido a esto se hacenecesario optimizar y mejorar las tecnologías relacionadascon la transmisión de video para garantizar una calidad deexperiencia adecuada. Es por ello que se están desarrollando nuevos protocolos de transmisión de videoadaptativos basados en DASH. Debido a que su uso estáaumentando en los últimos años para realizar streamingsobre HTTP. En este artículo presentamos la herramientaMediaDASH Tool, la cual es una aplicación web quepermite de manera muy intuitiva poder comprimir ypreparar videos para su difusión con DASH. Así como suposteri…
Intelligent transport systems harmonisation assessment: use case of some Spanish intelligent transport systems services
2013
From the 1980s, new telematic technologies have meant a great evolution in several areas. In the transportation domain, their use has implied the development and implementation of several intelligent transport systems (ITS). However, these deployments were done in an isolated way. Traffic managers, public and private organisations, stakeholders and others have implemented ITS without much perspective, that is, without providing ITS as services for end users. In the last few years, several European Union (EU) funded projects have been dealing with the development of harmonised ITS services. For example, the EasyWay Project is involving most of the European countries (EU member states and oth…
Application of Heavy Equipment Telematics in Infrastructure Projects : Method for automating collection of mixed fleet data, and optimization of proj…
2019
Master's Thesis Civil and Constructional Engineering BYG508 - University of Agder 2019 Existing heavy equipment telematics capabilities are not being used to their potential.In collaboration with Skanska there is an interest to look at how telematics can beused more efficiently with mixed equipment fleets. Current and future aspects are com-pelling, especially in relations to optimization and environmental benefits.Rv. 3 /rv. 25Løten–Elverumis provided as a case.This master’s thesis takes a closer look at the use of telematics data from heavy equip-ment at infrastructure projects. Through the automation of collecting telematics data,mixed fleet data are juxtapositioned to give insight into …
Impact of COVID-19 on hand surgery in Italy: A comparison between the Northern and the Southern regions
2021
The aims of this study were to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on emergency and elective hand surgery in four Italian regions that had either a high (Lombardy and Piemonte) or a low (Sicilia and Puglia) COVID-19 case load to discuss problems and to elaborate strategies to improve treatment pathways. A panel of hand surgeons from these different regions compared and discussed data from the centers they work in. The COVID-19 pandemic had an enormous impact on both elective and emergency surgery in Italy, not only in highly affected regions but also – and paradoxically even at a higher extent – in regions with a low COVID-19 case load. A durable and flexible redesign of hand surge…
