文摘

This paper gives the definitions of transport telematics and intelligent transport systems (ITS), and describes the basic pre-conditions, situation and market of ITS as well as its applications (products and services) in Europe. Availability of navigable digital maps is emphasized as a major premise. Strategic aspects and key issues for ITS development are explained. Current weaknesses and prospects for ITS services in 20 years are discussed. It is concluded that ITS will make a major contribution to the sustainable development of our society, because it increases our mobility without additional environmental burdens.
