Information and communication technologies enable the collection of information on traffic conditions and problems in real time. This information can be distributed through different channels and to different terminal types. In everyday life, the role of telematics is to facilitate safe and fluent travelling from one place to another. The quality of public transport can be improved with real-time timetables and route information services. Location and navigation services can help in finding your way. Traffic congestion can be partly avoided through traffic management and information services. Freight and fleet management systems can inform the dispatcher and consignee about the travel of the goods and possible delays across national borders. Traffic is teamwork The production and distribution of traffic information also requires functional public-private partnerships. The development of telematics applications and information services requires active participation of the entire value chain. The information, applications and terminals provided for the travellers must be reliable and safe to use. ITS Finland is an open forum for the cooperation of Finnish and international companies and public administrations as well as a network for telematics developers representing different transport modes. Its main task is to promote the deployment of concrete ITS services for private and corporate users. Information must be mobilised to serve the travellers and the transporters of goods. This calls for unprejudiced exploitation of information and communication technologies in the collection, processing and distribution of traffic information. ITS Finland has been launched as a three-year project, bringing together the different parties and establishing the forms for cooperation at the national and the international level.
