Aimsun is a double finalist at ITS Australia Awards 2021
We are thrilled to announce that Aimsun is a double finalist at the ITS Australia 2021 Awards. We have been shortlisted not only in the category of ‘Smart Transportation Infrastructure’ but also for ‘Excellence in Research and Development’, for two different projects in the Sydney area.
Smart Transport Infrastructure Award
Project: M4 Smart Motorway (M4SM) Project – Simulation-Based Support for Smart Motorway Infrastructure
Summary:
In collaboration with Johnson Controls International (JCI) and Transport for New South Wales (TfNSW), the team used live traffic data feeding analytics and transport modelling to deliver a real-time transport management decision support system; this system guides control room operators to the best course of action to minimise congestion using the tools at their disposal. It predicts traffic status over the next hour, and, when congestion is predicted, analyses the most appropriate mitigation strategy to clear traffic jams before they even form.
Excellence in Research and Development Award
Project: Sydney Victoria Road Intelligent Decision Support System (DSS)
Summary:
Aimsun, in partnership with analytics industry experts Data61 and TfNSW, teamed up under the Premier’s Innovation Initiative (PII) to deliver a world-first innovation in NSW.
The Victoria Road DSS leverages industry-leading expertise in multimodal transport modelling and artificial intelligence (AI), in a special development for one of Sydney’s busiest commuter corridors.
