World Congress on Intelligent Transport Systems
The World Congress on Intelligent Transport Systems (commonly known as the ITS World Congress) [1] is an annual conference and trade show to promote ITS technologies. ERTICO (ITS Europe), ITS America and ITS AsiaPacific are its sponsors. Each year the event takes place in a different region (Europe, Americas or Asia-Pacific).
Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) are advanced applications which, without embodying intelligence as such, aim to provide innovative services relating to different modes of transport and traffic management and enable various users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and 'smarter' use of transport networks. They are considered a part of the Internet of things.
