Preface
Transport telematics are the systems using the information and communication technologies in the area of infrastructure and of means of transport and its participants. An intelligent transport covers systems that allow, through the data transmission and analysis, to influence the behaviour of road users and the action of technical elements in means of transport or along the traffic route. Intelligent transport systems - in accordance with the European Directive - are used for the transport management informatisation. The research shows that the use of telematics can significantly increase the efficiency of the transport system, the road safety and the environmental protection. Solutions for intelligent transport systems are undergoing rapid technological development, and at the same time they are at the stage of intensive dissemination. The design and development of telematic transport systems is a new integrated approach to solving the transportation problems. Transport telematics offers large opportunities to strengthen the positive characteristics of transport (accessibility, mobility), while simultaneously minimizing its negative impacts (environmental pollution, energy consumption, accidents, infrastructure costs) without incurring large investment expenses. The implementation of traffic ma
