“…It is hoped for, and by many expected, that travel information provision may assist travelers in making better choices in these increasingly uncertain and complex multimodal travel networks by increasing travelers' knowledge levels (e.g. Khattak et al 1993;Walker and Ben-Akiva 1996;Adler and Blue 1998;Golledge, 2002;Abdel-Aty and Abdalla 2004;Jou et al 2005).…”

Information impact on quality of multimodal travel choices: conceptualizations and empirical analyses

This paper investigates the impact of a variety of travel information types on the quality of travel choices. Choice quality is measured by comparing observed choices made under conditions of incomplete knowledge with predicted choice probabilities under complete knowledge. Furthermore, the potential impact of travel information is considered along multiple attribute-dimensions of alternatives, rather than in terms of travel time reductions only. Data is obtained from a choice experiment in a multimodal travel simulator in combination with a web-based mode-choice experiment. A Structural Equation Model is estimated to test a series of hypothesized direct and indirect relations between a traveler's knowledge levels, information acquisition behavior and the resulting travelchoice quality. The estimation results support the hypothesized relations, which provides evidence of validity and applicability of the developed measure of travel-choice quality. Furthermore, found relations in general provide some careful support for the often expected impact of information on the quality of travel choices. The effects are largest for information services that generate previously unknown alternatives, and lowest for services that provide warnings in case of high travel times only.

“…Thus, further research continues in these two areas. In the former, the focus is upon advanced traveller information systems (ATIS), which can enable the provision of personalised information, to a variety of devices, tailored to the individual needs of the traveller, with a move towards intelligent traveller information systems (ITIS), which employ artificial intelligence to enable, for example, the automatic gathering and presentation of information prior to user request (Adler and Blue, 1998).…”

“…Creating intelligent systems to enhance travelling is at the heart of ITS. Six types of components broadly define ITS technologies: ATIS (advanced traveller information systems), AVCS (advanced vehicle control systems), CVO (commercial vehicle operations), ATMS (advanced traffic management systems), ARTS (advanced rural transportation systems) and APTS (advanced public transportation systems) (Adler and Blue 1998, Kanninen 1996, Ng et al 1995, Hameri and Paatela 2005. Currently, ITS activities are in various stages of research, development, operational testing and deployment.…”

“…ITIS is drawn upon to create systems capable of providing travellers with more personalised planning assistance. This 'will be more competitive and successful if it is customeroriented and smart enough to be customer specific' (Adler andBlue 1998, p. 164, Toral et al 2009b). Therefore, ITS must be considered as a transversal problem with implications in many areas, and investments in any ITS technologies must take into account the full range of social impacts of these technologies (Kanninen 1996, p. 2).…”

The evolution of electronics and the growing capabilities of in-vehicle and public infrastructure equipment make feasible the development of new value-added services in the field of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). However, initiatives in this sense frequently failed due to the lack of agreement or coordination among service providers, public authorities and final users. This article proposes a scientific method based on concept mapping techniques to extract these value-added services. The main benefit of the proposed methodology is its ability to take into account the different points of view of the main actors involved in the transportation field. Obtained results will provide the general guidelines for future ITS services.
