The fast-growing field of intelligent transport systems (ITS) spans everything from freight transport and traffic management to in-vehicle services like driver alert. This practical book is the first unifying reference that provides exhaustive coverage of existing and developing standards that support ITS services and their interoperability. The book reviews best practices and provides up-to-the-minute listings for standards developing organizations (SDOs) at both national and international levels.

Moreover, the book presents strategies for successfully integrating standards in ITS planning, deployment, and operations.
