We recorded so much great material at the ITS World Congress in Singapore, and some of it didn't fit into podcasts from the event, so here is a bonus podcast sponsored by AGD Systems, Cohda Wireless, HERE Technologies, Jenoptik, PTV Group, SWARCO and WSP. In the programme you'll hear the full summary of Congress from Prof Eric Sampson, Chief Rapporteur, who addressed the closing ceremony. Australian company Cohda Wireless and their partners Autonomous Stuff from Illinois Plus talk driverless technology and the business case around it, while we hear about data with EROAD and how anonomised data from road user charging can be used to predict traffic congestion and even accidents. We also hear from a first-time visitor to Congress, Steph Barton of WSP about her experiences at the event. Even this bonus podcast is not enough to fit in everything recorded in, so listen out for longer interviews with HERE, Blackberry, Dutch Experts and hall-of-famer Brian Negus to come, plus a session at congress with PTV and one from the opening of HERE’s new Singapore office. These will be available over the two weeks.
As the 26th ITS World Congress draws to a close, there is still lots of thought leadership going on in Singapore's Suntec Centre, and we're grabbing the best of it on Talking Transport sponsored by AGD Systems, Cohda Wireless, HERE Technologies, Jenoptik, PTV Group, SWARCO and WSP. In today's programme, we talk about the differing ways of approaching enforcement based on different cultural attitudes around the world with Jenoptik giving advice on how to approach the issue. The differences between cities and countries and a lack of one-size-fits-all approach is reflected in conversation with Bosch who talk about delivering mobility solutions in different places, while we hear about a radar-based safety solution from Navtech Radar that not only spots stopped vehicles but can help improve driving by catching tailgaters and centre lane hogs. Then we look to congresses future and how the British city of Birmingham is already working on its bid to host the World Congress in 2024, while Lisbon is going to be the location of Europe's first carbon-neutral mobility congress next year. Finally we hear from the President of ITS America about next year in Los Angeles. Add to all that Eric Sampson's guide to the final day of Congress 2019 and you've got half an hour of brilliant ITS chat on Talking Transport.
The way technology can deliver more efficiency on our transport network without the need for more infrastructure building, and how mapping makes our new mobility services possible take centre stage on our look ahead to Thursday at the ITS World Congress in Singapore, in podcasts sponsored by AGD Systems, Cohda Wireless, HERE Technologies, Jenoptik, PTV, SWARCO and WSP. We talk to PTV about the step change in modelling by using realtime data to fix traffic jams before they even happen, while SMART Highways editor Paul Hutton heads to HERE Technology's new offices in Marina Bay, Singapore to discuss mapping solutions and the different challenges faced by the map maker in different parts of the world. There's a conversation about ride sharing with Via, who say that humans will be rational and choose such mobility solutions if they make their lives easier than using their comfortable private car, while Siemens suggest that the long years of political concern about introducing road user charging my be coming to an end. You can also hear Eric Sampson's guide to the sessions he considers must-attend and also hear where you can see Paul Hutton moderate a panel in the Suntec Centre on Thursday afternoon.
A software solution for traffic management, a here-and-now connected vehicle demonstration and a pedestrian and cyclist-friendly intersection management system are showcased on today's Talking Transport from the ITS World Congress in Singapore sponsored by WSP, SWARCO, PTV Group, Jenoptik, HERE Technologies, Cohda Wireless and AGD Systems. SMART Highways editor Paul Hutton talks to SWARCO about how, as well as being a road lining, traffic signals, VMS and parking company, it is now supplying Software as a Service solutions to cities big and small, putting together the knowledge it has gained in 30 countries in the world to help cities manage the forthcoming challenges to mobility. Cohda Wireless and Cisco explain how they are leveraging Internet of Things technology and Wi-Fi based analytics technology at roadside infrastructure to capture real-time lane level traffic flow and road user behaviour, applying analytics to extract lane based queue length and intersection transition times to make them safer and more efficient. And we also hear about intersection management on both sides of the planet from AGD systems whose radar are used to efficiently deliver better traffic management. You can also hear reaction to Volocopter's public flight over Marina Bay (which has been tweeted on @smarthighwaysm) and Eric Sampson's suggestions for sessions not to miss on Wednesday at Congress. Paul also mentions a podcast he previously recorded with SWARCO that you can hear here: http://smarthighways.net/talking-transport-celebrates-swarcos-50th-birthday/
On Tuesday at the ITS World Congress, Singapore will see the first urban flight of a passenger drone and SMART Highways speaks to the founder of Velocopter, the company behind the project, to look ahead to this major event. This podcast is sponsored by WSP, SWARCO, PTV, Jenoptik, HERE, Cohda Wireless and AGD Systems. In a fascinating podcast from Singapore we also hear about a step-change in the ability to plan for future mobility needs as we find out about a tool which will not only predict what will happen in the future, but allow planners and consultants to see what needs to be changed to deliver the mobility outcomes that are desired. The Coordinating Minister for Infrastructure and the Minister for Transport, Khaw Boon Wan gave the main speech at the Opening Ceremony and you can hear highlights of this, and you'll also hear about future mobility tie-up opportunities between the UK and Asia Pacific region. All that plus Professor Eric Sampson's guide to the must-see sessions on Tuesday at Congress makes up for a great half hour of technology chat on Talking Transport.
The 2019 ITS World Congress is getting underway in Singapore and the official podcast looks ahead to Monday talking, among other things, enforcement, planning and encouraging entrepreneurs. These podcasts are sponsored by AGD Systems, Cohda Wireless, HERE, Jenoptik, PTV, SWARCO and WSP. In the programme from SMART Highways magazine, Professor Eric Sampson, who’s attended every single World Congress, discusses the main things to do on Day One ahead of the opening ceremony in the afternoon, and then the exhibition reception, suggesting some sessions that have caught his eye. We hear from one of the congress organisers about the programme to support the next generation of ITS professionals as well as encouraging risk-takers to come up with new solutions. Jenoptik talk about how to promote enforcement solutions as a “big friendly giant” rather than “big brother” while we look at a special invitation-only event taking place with WSP. There’s also a chance to hear again some advice of what to do in Singapore outside of the Congress walls. Although this podcast is from Singapore, much of the discussion is relevant to ITS professionals around the world, so even if you’re not at the World Congress, do have a listen! There will be new episodes of Talking Transport every day this week.
With just days to go until the 2019 ITS World Congress, Talking Transport brings you a second scene-setter for Singapore talking platooning, mapping, mobility and the next generation. These podcasts are sponsored by AGD Systems, Cohda Wireless, HERE Technologies, Jenoptik, PTV Group, SWARCO and WSP. In this podcast we talk to WSP who are going to be launching an exciting tool in Singapore which links the policy and deployment of new mobility to look at the transport network as an integrated system. Director Rehan Mian tells SMART Highways editor Paul Hutton that this tool is a fantastic opportunity to get decision makers in a room and understand how different factors interact and how the impact of what decisions you make today will affect the network in the future. Fellow sponsors Cohda Wireless tell Paul about their platooning solution and how emerging standards allow trucks to space themselves more closely and operate autonomously and how Cohda is developing proof-of-concept versions of software to deliver the benefits. Meanwhile the head of HERE Technologies maps explains how in the last five-to-seven years the way you build maps has fundamentally changed with sensors, connectivity and analysis driving a transformation that created a step-change in customer demands for mapping data. We also hear about a drive to bring the brightest and best young professionals from 15 countries across the Asia-Pacific region to Congress and have our excellent guide to Singapore, with details of must-visit tourist places, beaches, temples plus how the country is a mix of so many different cultures. Remember there will be five daily Talking Transport podcasts from Singapore, starting on Monday 21 October – each looks ahead to the day’s events by talking to organisers, exhibitors, speakers and demonstrators at the world’s must-visit annual ITS convention.
With the 2019 ITS World Congress less than a month away, SMART Highways magazine editor Paul Hutton returns with the latest Talking Transport podcast looking ahead to the event. These podcasts are sponsored by HERE, SWARCO, PTV, WSP, AGD, Jenoptik and Cohda Wireless. In today's programme Paul talks to one of the few people to have been to every World Congress, Prof Eric Sampson, about what to expect in Singapore and what we can learn from the country's transport challenges and solutions. We chat to three of our sponsors, AGD Systems about detection systems that don't involve digging up the road surface, SWARCO chat about a new urban mobility system called SWARCO MyCity and there's an explanation from PTV about why transport modelling is now helping real time traffic management. We get some words of wisdom from ERTICO - ITS Europe about why you should head to Singapore even if it's a long and expensive journey because it will save you money in the long run and we get a brilliant guide to Singapore from the CEO of Newcastle University in Singapore who tells us all about what to expect there. There'll be another Talking Transport in two weeks' time.
Now we've had time to reflect on the excellent ITS events in Eindhoven and Washington, DC in June, Talking Transport sponsored by SWARCO and MEDC is in conversation with some of the people who made the ITS European Congress a reality this year, and we get to hear some thoughts about how it all went. In this programme we talk to Congress Director Didier Gorteman about what worked and the reaction of the visitors and also the Chair of the Local Organising Committee, Gert Blom who talks about the lessons learned from the public day, MobiFestival. The CEO of main event sponsor Dynniq, Cees de Wijs talks about validating the business case for being part of an event like the ITS Europen Congress and Henry Houyvet, winner of the public prize of the start-up programme, Karhoo talks about why he won. Don't forget there is another congress review podcast with Eric Sampson next week and Talking Transport is the Official Podcast Provider from the ITS World Congress in Singapore, sponsored by HERE Technologies, AGD Systems, SWARCO, Cohda Wireless and WSP.
As the 25th ITS World Congress draws to a close Talking Transport is your trusted guide to the final day of the event, brought to you by SMART Highways magazine and sponsored by Michigan Economic Development Corporation, SWARCO, Jenoptik and SNC Lavalin business Atkins In today's programme we talk micromobility with SWARCO's solution to help improve the safety and therefore take-up of cycling in a city and we also look at modelling MaaS and PTV's latest thinking on the subject based on new simulation. Safety, or rather Saphety is discussed with Danish company Saphe that is promoting its new after-market device to improve warnings into vehicles, we hear from Cohda Wireless about their safety solution with connected street lights and Control F1 explain their in-car AI solution about driver behaviour. We also look forward to next year's World Congress in Singapore and Prof Eric Sampson explains what you ought to make time to go to on the last day of the event.
The final Talking Transport podcast from Detroit 2018 has plenty of thought leadership, a connected vehicle demonstration, two-continent innovation and no less than seven exhibitors. Andrew Dubner from 3M Connected Roads tells us about the growth in connectivity between what is on the roadway and in the car as the human driver no longer has to be in the middle of that relationship. Staying with connected cars, our presenter, SMART Highways editor Paul Hutton, takes a ride in a Cadillac to test out GM’s new connected features for traffic signals and road construction warnings and we talk to Bernd Luebben from Cohda Wireless about two new projects, one in New York and the other in Sydney, Australia. We also take a tour of the exhibit hall finding out what’s new and exciting from a range of companies; Intelight, ZincFive, Gridsmart, EDI, Image Sensing Systems, International Road Dynamics and Daktronics. We also look ahead to the next ITS World Congress which this year takes place in the beautiful European city of Copenhagen in Denmark – find out more at itsworldcongress.com.
