1 Experts behind intelligent transport

2 Preface Without transport the world would grind to a halt. Literally! Forget about going anywhere - school, office, shops or a vacation - you could probably stay indoors for days, log in to a virtual classroom, work from home, buy from online stores and read a book. But what about food, clothing, medicine, vehicles, computers everything has been transported into your world from somewhere else. Now imagine this... Reasonable detours redirect traffic just seconds after an accident. Speed limits are adjusted to the flow of traffic. Extra lanes become available before the bottleneck. Cars talk to us and each other. It s not magic and it s not your imagination wandering while you wait behind the wheel. and more. We re talking about things like dynamic transport management, infrastructure charging, smart travel, smart logistics and asset management. With over 40 years of experience in the industry, we ve been at the forefront of many of these technologies. We re excited about getting them into our communities, into our cars, into our handheld devices and really integrating how we think about transportation. It s called Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), a catch-all phrase for applying many different technologies to our transport networks, the goal being integrated infrastructure that communicates with vehicles and systems. cgi s ITS uses a variety of proprietary technologies that work in harmony, including space and land-based wireless communication radar, sensor and information technologies, Theo Quick Global Transport & Logistics Sector Lead

5 cgi.com 3 Dynamic Transport Management Transport networks are at the heart of the economy and society. Networks of the future will be super efficient, fully integrated and sustainable. Every kind of vehicle from trains and ships to cargo containers will talk to processing centres, transmitting identification, positioning and other useful data. Fast and user-friendly journey planners will help travellers plan intermodal, multi-agency trips and provide real time updates of travel routes, weather forecasts and traffic conditions. Dynamic traffic management (DTM) is a broad concept but typically involves harnessing real-time information to control traffic flows. We work with our clients to implement real-time systems, which provide valuable information about the capacity of transport networks and usage whether it s a road network, rail system, air corridor or shipping port. Our experience in DTM is helping our clients to unlock the following key benefits: manage their assets efficiently respond to real-time events in a timely manner predict events and implement contingency plans effectively maintain and increase customer satisfaction by keeping users informed and up to date increase efficiency and reduce fuel use

6 cgi.com 4 Traffic Control We can provide our clients with the means to gain a complete overview of the traffic systems relevant to them, seamlessly integrating with other systems whilst maximising interoperability, enabling our clients to exert direct or indirect influence on traffic accordingly. Case Study Traffic Management System, Eurotunnel Eurotunnel, operating a roll-on-rolloff shuttle service for over 4 million vehicles annually, wanted to be able to effectively and efficiently manage traffic at all of its terminals. We implemented the Traffic Management System for Eurotunnel. This solution separates traffic entering the terminal into categories, directs vehicles quickly through frontier controls to holding areas,forms vehicles into appropriately sized loads based on profile and time of next shuttle, directs traffic onto shuttle and then directs off-loaded traffic rapidly out of the terminal. The solution uses over 1,000 sensors and includes a Central control system providing information to staff on the profile of the shuttle and Passenger information systems. Transport Information Services Once you ve collected the data, you want to do something useful with it. cgi has a wealth of experience providing Traffic Information to the relevant parties, enabling them to make informed decisions when it comes to travel. Case Study Real Time Traffic Information, Finnish Road Authority The objective was to make real time traffic information collected over the network available to car users prior to their journey. The Finnish Road Authority believed a significant percentage of network delays experienced by road users could be prevented if traffic information was provided prior to journeys. We developed a real-time traffic information website for the Finnish Roads Authority based on its NAVICI technology. This website provides traffic information to the public prior to their journey and provides alternate routes if there is disruption on their route. This system is reliable and fast and in collaboration with other real time information services. It has helped to reduce congestion and minimize unnecessary delays which has been received well by its users. Case Study - Real Time Information System and AVL, RATP RATP needed to improve the management of its large bus and tram fleet and provide real-time travel information to its passengers. The service needed to be provided for approximately 4,000 buses, 250 Bus lines, 3 Tramways lines, 12,000 Bus Stops (with count-down information), and 80 Bus garage Monitoring stations. We redeveloped large components of their existing Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) system to make it an effective real time bus monitoring system to improve fleet management and maximise the utilisation of their busses via efficient scheduling. Each bus was installed with a GPS system and sophisticated embedded electronic devices enabling RATP to gain an accurate picture of where their busses were at any given point increasing their scheduling performance and asset management. On top of this passengers could make more informed decisions about their journeys. Multi Modal Journey Planning We develop state-of-the-art passenger information system s that enhance usability, increase demand and improves customer service through the provision of accurate up-to-date service information, relieving pressure on call centres and enabling best use of transport network Multimodal Journey planning systems have multiple effects which benefit the traveller, transport operator and infrastructure owner alike. Through greater information a change in traveller behaviour will:. reduce the amount of cars in the area, reducing the environmental impact, and improving the traffic flow, therefore ensuring faster, more reliable journey times. empower travellers with journey knowledge.

7 cgi.com 5 lead to greater use of walking and cycling modes, cuts down on carbon emissions. Studies have shown that journey planner s increases the use of public transport and shifts trips from private cars. Case Study Helsinki Journey Planner, YTV The Helsinki Regional Transport Authority selected cgi to implement a door-todoor Journey Planner to help people find the most efficient way to get from A to B. We implemented the Navici journey planning solution which finds the best options using any travel combination from walking and cycling to trains and ferries. The journey planner has won several awards and has been rated Finland s second most valued internet brand. Intelligent Transport Systems Along with providing a valuable service to travellers the system also offers the ability to sell everything as a service, including map data so you can see a return on investment as well as encouraging the use of public transport. Open API also leads to brand independent mobile and web apps development by third parties which further encourages the use of the system. Case Study Journey.fi Nation Wide Journey Planner, Finnish Ministry of Transport The Ministry of Transport needed a partner to design and implement Journey. fi, the Finnish National door to door public transport Journey Planner covering the whole country. The Journey.fi service had to identify the best route for any travel within Finland, using bus, train, tram, metro, ferry or simply walking. The service needed to include all scheduled bus routes and both local and longdistance trains. We designed, delivered and are currently hosting Journey.fi on behalf of the Finnish Ministry of Transport. The system holds approximately 18 million address numbers, 170,000 street names, 190,000 service lines and more than 20,000 stops. Empowered Personal Travel Itinerary Monitoring Service (EPTIMS) As passenger transport strives to transform in order to meet the needs of its ever more demanding customers the seed of a new dawn in door-to-door traveller experience has been growing. And nowhere has this been more noticeable than in the convergence of ticketing, retailing and the provision of travel service information in order to offer better customer experience and gain customer insight and loyalty. We have developed EPTIMS, a multi-modal, personalised, contextaware online virtual travel assistant service for travellers, both before and throughout every part of their journey. The solution focuses on information that the traveller can easily understand, trust and want to continue to use, and in doing so accelerate development of the concept for multi-modal real-time journey information service provision The service itself features a number of major innovations in personal journey management including real-time service updates and the opportunity to immediately re-plan, based on latest information to-hand, where connections are likely to be missed as a result of service disruptions. This offers the opportunity to influence passengers in real-time, on a context awareness basis, in reaction to perturbations of planned journeys, and most importantly, in such a way that establishes mass personalisation and intimacy with individual travellers.

8 cgi.com 6 Vehicle 2 Vehicle & Vehicle 2 Infrastructure Vehicles and infrastructure that communicate any-time any-where using wireless and/or wired technologies and create opportunities for increasing operational efficiency and top-line revenues. There s a revolution on the street. Drivers get personalized information when they re on highways, regional or urban roads. So they are warned of approaching traffic hazards before they turn the corner. Find out the overall traffic situation before starting their trip. And always know the best routes to take. Every player in the transport world the traveler, the road or fleet operator, the service provider talks directly with each other and with the roadside infrastructure. CVIS Sci fi fantasy? Believe it or not, Cooperative Vehicle-Infrastructure Systems (CVIS) is working to make this a reality. The challenge is to connect cars, trucks, buses, traffic lights, infrastructure into a network. We are working with the European Commission on the CVIS initiative. The activities we work on are: positioning and mapping system integration testing and demonstrating Our in-car and infrastructure technologies transform how vehicles talk with each other and the broader transport network. We ve always held that technology should make it easier for people at work and away from it. The CVIS platform and applications are perfect examples of this. Complex technical work happens in the background with very little need for human intervention. They are built to make the lives of drivers and passengers easier, safer and more enjoyable. CVIS is a European project coordinated by Ertico, the European ITS organization which will increase road safety and efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of road transport. SPITS No more traffic congestion. Emergency vehicles get to a crash sites faster than before. A single electronic payment mechanism to pay for fuel, tolls, public transport fares, parking, and a variety of other charges that busy travellers encounter every day. This is no longer a fantasy, the future is here. Strategic Platform for Intelligent Traffic Systems (SPITS) is a Dutch initiative, funded by a consortium of 13 technology partners and the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs. We are a key player in accelerating the concepts of cooperative systems towards the market in the SPITS consortium. The goal of SPITS is to create an open, scalable and affordable platform for future transport systems. It is hoped that this will then positively affect mobility by making vehicles smarter, cleaner and safer. We developed the secure core services for the open platform that offers the infrastructure for cooperative driving in Europe. Pay As You drive Use our history of expertise in telematics, combined with experience gained from our award winning solutions such as EMO and CRIMSON, to help reduce the risks associated with auto insurance. EMO We have developed an award-winning telematics solution -EMO - a secure, efficient, reliable and vendor neutral invehicle telematics system that captures vehicle usage parameters in real-time. EMO has been recognised as one of the ten game-changing innovations to combat climate change. EMO monitors driving behaviour through analysing the emissions of the vehicle. In a recent trial EMO helped reduce fuel consumption by over 10% leading to average savings of 33 per vehicle per month and reduced aggressive driving by 50%. By monitoring driving habitats and driving style change as drivers become more aware of the impact of their driving style. Accurate emissions data can also reduce maintenance costs as constantly high emission output can be an early indicator a vehicle needs repair giving the operator an early warning light.

9 cgi.com 7 EMO also seamlessly integrates with your insurance application and calculates premium in real-time, based on distance, time and speed. Customers today want the latest in terms of technology and ecofriendly solutions. They want to understand how they can reduce their personal carbon emissions and fuel costs and they d like to be rewarded for doing so. By driving in an efficient safe way a customer can reduce their insurance and fuel costs at the same time be more environmentally friendly. In this scenario everybody is a winner. As EMO is a ready to use predeveloped solution this represents a cost effective solution. CRIMSON Crimson is our usage-based insurance solution. It allows insurance companies to evaluate the risk of drivers in real time with the help of an onboard device. The onboard device monitors driving parameters like distance, speed, time and location to arrive at a customised premium for a customer based on usage. Crimson enables customers to controltheir insurance premiums based on usage and by providing constant feedback to the drivers on their vehicle usage. For insurance companies, Crimson helps with customer segmentation by helping to identify riskier drivers, and hence helping with better risk profiling. Insurance is therefore better administered. By using crimson insurance companies can have access to a huge mine of data to validate fraudulent claims. It also helps in quick completion of the claims process. Crimson isn t restricted to pay-asyou-drive solution but also extends to pay-how-you drive. Crimson solution is not tied with a particular onboard device, it can interface to any GPS or ODB II based devices. Crimson also seamlessly integrates with our EMO solution which rates drivers based on carbon emission. The Crimson solution can be integrated with insurance brokerage firms/ resellers as well as insurance companies. Meg Our solution Meg gets you accurate, realtime information on your fleet, giving you complete control. A simple SMS from your mobile phone gets you the exact location of your vehicle wherever it is. You even get SMS alerts and recorded call-backs on vehicle location. As a fleet operator or owner, cgi Meg offers you better operational, time and cost efficiencies. It helps you build important value-addedservices for improved customer intimacy and loyalty. As you manage your fleets better, your drivers become more vigilant. You can track fuel consumption and ensure there are no detours in the routes. You also get alerts in case of delays or route deviations. More importantly, you can track your vehicle in case of theft. Your customers are happier too, as they can get real time information by just sending an SMS.

Case Study Mobile Ticketing Inspection and Verification, SNCF We successfully delivered the largest French mobility project with over 12,000 ticket inspectors equipped with PDA for SNCF France s national state-owned railway company. The business process changed from a pure ticket control process to that of a commercial and selling process in addition to its existing validation duty. We, designed, developed and deployed a mobile solution, using a specially designed RFID component to control the RFID Smartcard Navigo passes. This improved working conditions for ticket inspectors, give them commercial addedvalue, and optimise the passenger service by deploying a new range of Handhelds mobile ticketing units. Case Study Concessionary Commercial Smartcard Scheme, Centro Centro, the UK Passenger Transport Executive for the Birmingham & West Midlands area wanted to develop a smart infrastructure to use smartcard technology to administer its concessionary fares scheme and to offer other commercial fares schemes in the West Midlands area. Centro needed to issue a 500,000 smartcards, to each person resident in the West Midlands area who is entitled to concessionary travel. Since July 2007, we have designed and implemented the overall technical architecture design for the Centro Smartcard scheme with compliance to the UK ITSO Standard. We have have produced and delivered over 500,000 National Concessionary Passes for over 60 blind and disabled people in the region. The take up rate of these smartcard passes is estimated at 89%, proving the success of the scheme amongst the population. Case Study Smart Card, Transport for Scotland Transport Scotland wanted to be able to offer concessionary travel the length and breadth of Scotland. The scheme would allow those aged over sixty and disabled people to travel free, at any time, on any bus or scheduled long-distance coach service, anywhere in Scotland. They chose us to develop key components of the world s first national smartcardbased concessionary travel scheme based upon the UK Government s new ITSO standard. That challenge was formidable, particularly when over 300 individual bus operators had to be brought into the scheme. Implemented to extremely challenging timescales and in a highly-complex environment, the system has enabled Transport Scotland to make national concessionary travel a reality since April 2006.

Case Study SNCF Mobile Asset Management Solution The French railway service and infrastructure provider, SNCF, undertook a major programme to improve the safety and reliability on its 31,000 km of railway network. One of the key objectives of this programme was to improve the management and the effectiveness of the engineers workforce. We implemented a solution which equips SNCF s 800 engineers with wireless handheld terminals to collect and analyse asset data on the condition of the tracks. The device synchronises directly with the central SNCF track asset maintenance database to remove the element of human error in data collection and handling. The solution enables SNCF to increase the accuracy and the cost efficiency of maintenance and improvement projects. The mobile workforce also directly contributes to a better maintenance of the rail network increasing safety and punctuality for its 13,000 daily passenger and freight trains.

19 cgi.com 17 Case Study - Airport Operations Management Systems, ANA GO As ANA operated more and more airports, it needed to replace its varied local airport management applications with a single, common product. We developed GO, an airport operation system. GO manages and controls all the daily operational activities of an airport. The processes within scope are: Schedule & time slot allocation Planning & operations dispatch Airfield & terminal management Interface management Total infrastructure management including vehicle management Staff management Mobile management GO is a world class total airport management system that: Provides central and unified multiairport information management Facilitates the daily operation using an advanced user interface Increases the efficiency of the planning process while substantially decreasing the time to plan Deploys new features with zerodown times Case Study Airbus Asset Management Integrated System, Airbus The AMIS project (Asset Management Integrated System) is an IS solution that deals with Airbus second hand aircrafts. The required solution needed to incorporate the upgrade of their existing SAP solution from 4.5 b to SAP ECC 6.0. We were selected by Airbus to deliver keyparts of the AMIS project like functional stream coordination, customising update, specifics upgrade, documentation upgrade, functional tests realisation, acceptance phase assistance and go live migration assistance. The project was delivered to budget and on time within a tight timeline of four months. Case Study Vehicle Tracking Module, Olympic Delivery Authority A solution was required for the management and tracking of delivery vehicles in and around the Olympic construction site in East London. The system needs to track and confirm road, rail and river movements to assist with security ease congestion and increase efficiency. We implemented an RFID tag-based vehicle tracking solution. Vehicles are issued with a unique RFID tag which is scanned at locations throughout the site using RFID enabled mobile devices and information passed to back-end applications. These applications manage vehicle tracking and the booking and scheduling of deliveries. The scope of the solution covers: a web-based vehicle tracking module that is used to manage users, mobile devices, produce reports and set policies a delivery booking module to process and schedule arrivals and deliveries unique identifiers for each vehicle passive RFID-enabled clipboards mobile terminals for scanning RFID tags. ODA has recorded the following benefits from the use of the RFID VTM so far: Reduced congestion impact on the local community Improved security Improved delivery times, especially at bottlenecks, through efficient management and scheduling of deliveries

20 cgi.com 18 Case Study Asset Management With GIS ActuRail, ProRail ProlRail wanted to be able to display scheduled maintenance works on the rail network using a geographic display to help with ongoing scheme development, project planning and maintenance prioritisation and scheduling. We designed and developed a solution which interfaced with the data coming from the in-house GIS database ArcGIS (COTS, ESRI). Our team integrated Google Maps into the application to provide a simple user interface to a resilient mapping database. The ActuRail application has four components: The Map interface The Website on the IIS server ArcGIS containing the geographic data The asset management database containing information on railroad maintenance Up to date maintenance works are displayed via Google Maps which can be viewed on the client PCs via a web browser. The user interface was intuitive and required no training. The solution was a cost effective way of achieving client objectives. IBOR Our IBOR offering helps local government and other organisations to reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) of street lighting and other assets, through management and remote control of these assets. This includes potential reductions in electricity use/costs, by up to 40%, through more precise real-time control of street lighting. It can also bring potential savings of up to 15% to 20% in maintenance costs, through better understanding of the condition of assets. The offering has a wider application to centrally manage a whole range of assets in public spaces, well beyond lighting. This offering also helps clients to reduce carbon by using less energy, improve safety through better lighting and central control. It also helps to deliver benefits across assets and municipality policy areas because of the flexibility of IBOR to work across many types of assets and situations.

21 cgi.com 19 Infrastructure Charging Road User Charging Consulting Our expertise and knowledge in the design, implementation and operation of electronic tolling systems gained from relevant European Road User Charging projects in Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland through consulting state road authorities. We can leverage deep knowledge from implementation of three nationwide tolling schemes to ensure your RUC operations are as effective as possible. Through our understanding of all involved stakeholders, technologies (DSRC, GNSS/GSM, Hybrid) and risks we can focus on technical and operational SLAs/KPIs. Case Study ETC Consultancy, National Highway Authority CzechRepublic (RSD) The National Highway Authority (RSD) vwanted consultancy service for FreevFlow-Multi-Lane Electronic Tolling System (ETC) for vehicles above 12t and later over 3.5t. The scope of the tolled network included both highways and selected 1st class roads. We were responsible for the steering of the project under supervision of the client. The project scope included: ETC operating supervision Building of new extensions of ETC system on new road segments Delivery of Hybrid system interface - DSRC/GNSS (microwave/satellite) interface Running a pilot project of Hybrid system interface for 3 years Hybrid OBU delivery and logistics for testing purposes Integration, testing and certifying of 5000 Hybrid OBU delivered by third parties Delivery of RTA interface for telematic applications We identified potential problems in system design or delivery and helped mitigate potential risks even before they occurred. Our team helped RSD to avoid serious unexpected problems and supported it through the whole lifecycle of the project. Road user Charging Performance Audit We offer unique services to Road Authorities to monitor and audit the real performance of their RUC Schemes in operation. We offer proven methodology, tools and techniques for assessment of the key SLA/KPI parameters to ensure maximum toll is being collected as planned and contracted. We operate our own independent reference systems for vehicle License Plate Recognition, On-board reference units and other technologies to allow the comparison of data collected via toll system against independent data. Our offer: Ready to use audit methodology and toolset Independent 24 x 7 optical traffic flow measurement and other reference monitoring devices Own back-office for manual traffic data evaluation processing 2-3 million transactions (vehicle pictures) a month Unmatchable vehicle recognition accuracy of 99.98% combining automated and manual processing Case Study Electronic Toll Collection, National Highway Authority Slovak Republic The National Highway Authority Slovak Republic wanted to measure and evaluate its Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) system operated by SkyToll. ETC service provider should continually meet all criteria, defined by Service Level Agreement, and be rewarded based on qualitative and quantitative service measures. The challenge for our client was to measure and to evaluate accurately all quantitative and qualitative service criteria decided through the Service Level Agreement. We offered independent expertise and continuous SLA monitoring and assessment as a service. We provided the National Highway Authority a strong team of qualified consultants, able to assess all continually monitored ETC parameters and to provide advisory services. Our team enabled our client to get the best ETC results, maximising toll income and minimising ETC service costs.
