Summary: | The present invention relates generally to telematics sensor systems, and, more specifically, to the collection and transfer of dynamic traffic and environmental data from mobile on-board collection systems to the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) network. Most specifically, the present invention relates to collection of traffic incidents by mobile units, and processing of traffic incidents by the ITS network.
A system and method for mobile platform real-time collection, transmission, and processing of an array of environmental and vehicle-related data in the context of an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) network. The system and method provide enhanced in-vehicle data collection, enhanced communications capability between the vehicle and the ITS system, and enhanced ITS implementation functionality to provide real-time incident reporting to ITS users. |
