The following document analyzes the current situation in mobility and intelligent transportation in Colombia and in some cities around the world. Presenting several cases of success and implementation of technologies and protocols that seek to improve the problems with the greatest impact in today’s cities, such as traffic congestion, environmental impact, accessibility, and road safety.…

Road safety has become an object of research and many research institutes have invested in this field because a lot of people die and many others are injured every year due to road accidents. The deployment of wireless communication technologies for vehicular networks can considerably improve road safety. It can enable new services such as…

Most crossroads use a traffic light to communicate between human-driven vehicles by conveying to the drivers when to stop and when to proceed in an organized fashion. However, the stop and wait nature of traffic lights cause slower mobility, leading to congestion. This paper presents a localization scheme based on two-dimensional (2D) flat geometry adaptation…

Nowadays, automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) is very important especially in the era of smart cities and intelligent transport systems. Fully automated number plate detection and recognition system helps in reducing time, error, and cost for tracking of vehicles and for recording traffic violations. The main goal of this paper is to design a low…

This research describes new traffic congestion analysis method “Traffic Congestion Triangle” based on more than one month real traffic big data analysis in India. The location of the research is one of typical economical growing cities Ahmedabad in Gujarat state of India. The traffic congestion becomes more serious issues in most developing countries and the…

Bus Rapid Transit in Purwokerto-Purbalingga is a new mass transportation mode. Recently, the execution of the BRT has been going on for three years. In terms of service standards to ridership, the BRT has been fulfilled the requirement. However, during the execution, it shall be supported by the non-ridership (local communities) who get the impact…

For many years, a lot of researches have been made to develop Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) that are based on integrated systems. The main objective is to help drivers. Hence, keeping them safe under different driving conditions. Visibility for drivers remains the biggest problem faced on the road in an atmosphere of fog. In…

In recent years there has been technological growth in the field of facility location, considering it as a significant factor to achieve greater competition among companies. The present work gives a methodological solution for a territorial redesign in a Mexican automotive parts distribution company with the support of Geotechnological tools like Geographic Information Systems (GIS)…

The problem of planning and location of loading/unloading (L/U) areas attracting interest from several researchers. This is mainly because of the heterogeneity of information and the great complexity of logistics flows. Among the projects of the urban logistics in Morocco, the L/U areas represent an essential importance in the deliveries to the centers of the…

To reduce its high last mile logistics cost, a company may explore different options such as a horizontal collaboration with another company that has a similar logistics requirement. Traditionally, the collaboration can be conducted through an outsource contract mechanism where the company may need to guarantee a certain number of logistics demands or usage for…

The main problem of the distribution of freight in archipelago countries such as Indonesia is how to ensure that the outlying and outermost islands are served optimally, with low freight costs and optimal frequency of vessel stops at ports.
