An ontology for sustainable intelligent transportation systems

Abstract

Nowadays, the need of Intelligent Transportation Systems software tools and services for Sustainable Transportation is urgent. This paper proposes an ontology specially tailored for Intelligent Transportation System characterization. The main features of the proposed ontology is the ability to incorporate sustainable variables when characterizing a transportation system, and the coverage of open fleet concepts together with its dynamic features. Moreover, it is enhanced to facilitate its integration with other intelligent components that in a wider and complete application tool can provide intelligent computation over the data specified with the proposed ontology.
