AbstractThe digital revolution, spatial information and communication systems in particular, have a significant influence on the development of new transport systems. Participants acquire an in-depth understanding of the functionality and application potential of spatial information systems and services and of communication technologies for deployment in future transport systems and applications.
Learning objectiveFamiliarity with information and communication technologies (ICT) and spatial information technologies, and the ability to identify and utilise their potential to address concrete problems.
Content- Functionality and application of geographic information systems (GIS) to represent and analyse transport systems (acquire, model, analyse and visualise geodata)
- Deployment potentials of GIS and ICT for efficient transport solutions (tangible, non-tangible)
- Functionality and application of mobile spatial information technologies in future transport systems
- Methods of spatiotemporal analysis and geodata analysis
- Technical aspects of information and communication technologies (ICT)
- Modelling, simulation and assessment of traffic behaviour
- Basics of autonomous driving
- Legal aspects of geodata
- Applications: Traffic behaviour in Switzerland; location based services for energy-efficient behaviour; GIS for the Zurich traffic system (multimodal)
