ONE-ITS Core Concepts: – Integration of

▐ Multi-Stakeholder, Multi-Jurisdiction, Multi-Agency, Multi-Sector

– ITS

▐ Intelligent Transportation System

• Broad definition including both demand and supply management

– Crowd Sourcing of Transportation Intelligence

• Ubiquity at low cost

• From many stakeholders to many stakeholders

– Transportation Intelligence:

• Data

• Software systems

• Hardware and computing platforms

• People’s expertise or tacit knowledge
