Smart Cities: Urban ITS and the role of connected and autonomous vehicles

2. Urban ITS – starting point

Urban ITS – starting point
Much of the ITS pilot focus in Europe has been on corridors
The European Commission decided there was a need to focus more on cities, and the particular role of ITS in Smart Cities
Ongoing work since 2010
Part of the legislative framework

What is Urban ITS?
DG MOVE did a thorough analysis that ended up with three areas of interest
Multimodal Information Systems
Traffic Management
Urban Logistics

4. Multimodal Information Systems
18 November 2018
Urban ITS
Multimodal Information Systems
Can be defined as cyberspace support for an end-to-end physical journey
Open, standardized data access for all modes under one portal
Planning the trip
Booking the trip
Paying for the trip
Access during the trip
Changing the trip en route
Documenting finished trips

5. Traffic Management “Signal lights on steroids”

Traffic Management
“Signal lights on steroids”
Europe is quite fragmented regarding traffic management and signal systems
Many/most implementations are proprietary
Big push against vendor lock-in
Therefore a need to see TM as an integrated system that utilizes the full ITS toolbox
In-vehicle signage
On-demand routing
Individual priority schemes
And all needs to be open and standardised

6. Urban Logistics Significant parts of traffic in cities are:

Urban Logistics
Significant parts of traffic in cities are:
Vehicles circling around to park
Goods delivery waiting for loading bay
Open, standardized solutions in cyberspace will alleviate these:
Allowing access only to vehicles with parking space (+ booking, route guidance)
Loading bay management
Intelligent freight transports that combine goods to the same area

7. Standards status: CEN CEN TC278/WG17 Urban ITS
18 November 2018
Urban ITS
Standards status: CEN
CEN TC278/WG17 Urban ITS
The purpose of WG17 is as follows
Act as coordination point for Urban ITS standards development under Mandate 546, including
Other WGs of CEN TC278
Other CEN TCs
ETSI TC ITS
Lead Project Teams to progress Urban ITS work items quickly
Be the harmonization and consensus forming group for Urban ITS
Develop relevant Urban ITS documents
Handle international coordination and harmonization (ISO, IEEE)
9 core standards planned for the next 18 months

8. Standards status: ISO ISO TC204 has an active study group

Standards status: ISO
ISO TC204 has an active study group
Intelligent Mobility
Strong statement of support for the European Urban ITS process
High interest to follow European work
ISO will act cooperatively and not duplicate work
Different/smaller scope than CEN
US focus on Mobility on Demand
Some other actors focus on Mobility as a Service
Work will likely continue as an coordination activity
Not likely to become a new ISO WG for now

9. European scene – Mobility as a Service

Urban ITS
European scene – Mobility as a Service
Started in Finland
A number of companies all over Europe
Several alliances
Also global presence

10. US Scene: Mobility on Demand

Urban ITS
US Scene: Mobility on Demand
Originates from university work
Support from USDOT
Now also a commercial service
New Zealand has MoD: Car sharing service MEVO

11. Connected Automated Vehicles

Urban ITS
Connected Automated Vehicles
Very challenging from a technical point of view
ISO TC204 is dealing with many aspects of automation
WG14 is dealing with testability
WG16 is dealing with communications
WG18 is dealing with co-operative aspects
Connectivity and co-operation is recognized to be essential for full automation
Pure autonomy will result in sub-optimal performance
