Research & Innovation

Intelligent Transport Systems are continuing to evolve rapidly, which is why the industry relies heavily on research and innovation. ITS Vienna Region is involved in many research projects and continually develops its services.

Graph Integration Platform (GIP)

As the official reference traffic graph, GIP requires continuous further development. ITS Vienna Region holds a central role in each of these many projects.

AnachB

The routing service AnachB is continually improved and optimised for specific target groups (people with limited mobility, cyclists, ...).

EVIS.at (traffic situation)

Every 7 minutes, ITS Vienna Region provides all three federal states of Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland with a traffic update. In the context of EVIS.at, traffic condition updates like these are to be developed in consistent quality for all of Austria.

NawiMOP (Floating Phone Data)

Anonymised data from smartphones related to location and speed can be an important foundation for traffic planning. As part of NawiMOP, investigations are underway to explore how this data can be used and processed.

Digitalisation of traffic management

ITS Vienna Region provides support to the federal states of Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland in the transition to digital traffic management. Thereby, it aims to simplify traffic management, to make it more efficient and transparent and to contribute to more up-to-date and more reliable traffic information. Examples for innovative projects are:

  • P90: integrated decision issuance for road construction sites in Vienna
  • QR codes: timely, easy and reliable notification of the beginning and end of construction activities at construction sites
  • Concession assistant: integrated concession issuance for public bus service
