Real-time traffic insights
GIS provides real-time insights on traffic conditions, helping authorities monitor congestion, identify bottlenecks and adjust traffic signals to improve flow.
Intelligent Transportation Solutions
The Power of Where
GIS helps plan, monitor and operate critical intelligent transportation systems, driving efficiency, safety and data-driven decisions.
How can GIS help ITS?
- Mobility
- Safety
- Sustainability

-
Optimal routing solutions
By analyzing spatial data, GIS can suggest the most efficient routes for vehicles, reducing travel times and minimizing delays.
-
Congestion hotspot identification
GIS helps pinpoint areas prone to congestion, allowing for targeted interventions such as road expansions or traffic diversions to alleviate traffic jams.
-
Accident analysis and response
GIS enables the mapping of accident-prone zones, aiding in the deployment of emergency services and the implementation of public safety measures to prevent future incidents.
-
Public transport integration
GIS facilitates the integration of public transport systems with traffic management, promoting multi-modal transportation options and reducing reliance on private vehicles.

-
Real-time incident management
GIS helps authorities quickly identify incidents such as accidents or road closures, allowing for prompt responses to minimize disruptions and ensure safety.
-
Risk mitigation
GIS allows for the analysis of safety hazards, vulnerable road segments and accident hotspots, empowering decision-makers to implement targeted safety measures and interventions to reduce risks.
-
Pedestrian and cyclist safety
GIS helps in designing safer infrastructure for pedestrians and cyclists by analyzing traffic flow, identifying crossing points and implementing measures to enhance their safety on the roads.
-
Safety planning
GIS enables the mapping of high-risk areas, accident-prone zones and critical infrastructure. It aids in safety planning enhancements and targeting interventions to raise awareness and promote safer driving practices.
-
Enhanced visibility
GIS enhances situational awareness for both drivers and transportation officials, improving decision-making and response times in emergency situations.

Optimizing resource allocation
GIS helps to efficiently manage resources like fuel and time by providing insights into usage patterns and demand, thus promoting sustainable practices. GIS further optimizes fleet operations through data-driven interventions based on vehicle insights such as preventative maintenance alerting.
-
Reducing carbon emissions
GIS can identify areas with high emissions and alternative routes or modes of transport to help reduce carbon footprint. This helps in combating air pollution and climate change.
-
Supporting eco-friendly initiatives
GIS enables the planning and implementation of eco-friendly transportation projects such as bike lanes, electric vehicle charging stations and green infrastructure.
-
Enhancing public transport systems
GIS aids in designing efficient public transport networks that encourage people to use buses, trains or shared rides instead of individual cars. This shift towards sustainable modes of transport reduces traffic congestion and reliance on fossil fuels.
-
Promoting sustainable urban development
By mapping land use, mobility, infrastructure and environmental factors, GIS helps urban planners make better informed decisions that prioritize sustainability. This helps communities reduce environmental impact and improve the quality of life for residents.

Transportation - [i]GeoXchange[/i]®
A distributed system of systems fused together to deliver data-driven decisions using preconfigured tools that leverage real time and historical data on authoritative multi-modal transportation infrastructure.
Multi-lane street network
The geospatial system of record within the TGX forms the foundation of a transportation system. Upgrade from a single-centreline street representation to a multi-lane, multi-modal network to accurately reference, integrate and analyze growing transportation data.
Smart parking
Data from vendor apps unified by the TGX into a single pane of glass enables smart parking analytics across streets, municipal garages and public spaces. Optimize pricing, refine bylaws and improve curbside management.
Real-time traffic hazards monitoring
Unpermitted road work and lane closures are leading contributors to congestion and safety risks. Lack of documentation causes unexpected traffic impacts and hazards. Real-time visibility through the TGX of precise work zones helps track closures, prevent disruptions and resolve disputes.
Multi-modal traffic analytics
AI-powered IoT sensors and big-data telemetry connected to the TGX track vehicles, bikes, transit, freight and pedestrians at intersections and through corridors, providing insights into the evolution of Canada’s transportation systems.
