Most existing traffic data collection and information services have been developed based on specific requirements of their own sectors without taking into account inter-sector cooperation potentials, resulting in a fractioned environment. Although there are a number of platforms available on the market, the current platforms lack open interfaces, which can allow other service providers to access their information. Therefore, any service provider has to collect their own data and develop their own data analysis models, resulting in less efficiency to deliver the service and often unsatisfactory quality. This paper proposes a concept for development of an open platform for traffic management and traveller information services for metropolitan areas. The overview for the open platform is described with some examples of applications and services. Expected improvements and benefits from application of the open platform are also presented.
