Manage your transportation and borders intelligently
Roads and highways are an important part of the modern economy, connecting people to each other, to their workplace and to the places where they spend their free time. But as traffic levels increase and roadways and metropolitan areas become more congested and difficult to monitor, governments and companies alike face the challenging task of maintaining and securing this critical infrastructure.
To aid in this task, DXC Technology developed DXC Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), a suite of high-performing edge and sensor solutions for observation, detection, management and enforcement on roads, rail and water, at ports, borders and perimeters. With a focus on transportation and logistics – the movement of both goods and people – DXC ITS uses sensors and analytics to orchestrate and integrate the various individuals in the ecosystem, enabling coordination and decision making across those ecosystems.
DXC Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)
DXC Technology has been successfully developing products for road management and traffic enforcement for more than 20 years. Our Intelligent Transportation Systems offer a variety of innovative solutions for vehicle detection and traffic enforcement that are used on highways, local roads and at border crossings throughout northern Europe.
DXC ITS includes the “Sentinel” suite: three advanced applications solutions that focus on fast vehicles, data collection and automatic border surveillance; video-based tolls, without the need for additional equipment installation in trucks or cars; environmental zones; and travel time determination.
DXC ITS Sentinel Solutions:
- Sentinel Multiforce: A fully automated and autonomous digital average speed enforcement system (ASES) that discourages speeding, reduces speed-related traffic accidents and improves traffic flow, leading to reductions in carbon emissions caused by traffic jams.
- Sentinel Weight: A free-flow weigh-in-motion (WIM) system for the logistics industry that monitors the weight of heavily-loaded trucks to reduce damage to both infrastructure (roads and bridges) and to vehicle braking and handling systems that can lead to serious accidents.
- Sentinel Borderforce: A border control solution that uses automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) to track and prevent unwanted visitors without compromising the free flow of traffic. Sentinel Borderforce is currently used at more than 20 border control spots in the Netherlands, Belgium and neighboring countries.
Business problems solved
- Customers gain insight into their key business processes. A high-quality sensor grid offers a common operational picture and situational awareness to enhance decision making, with a focus on information quality, solution simplicity and continuous work effectiveness.
- Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning provide true business value. Putting data in a centralized data warehouse is a more efficient way of organizing that data, and enables engineers or software to use it more effectively.
- Data is collected and maintained according to the highest ethical standards. Because the data collected by our ITS solutions is often used as evidence in traffic court, it needs to be sound and irrefutable. Our ITS experts have worked closely with law enforcement agencies – including police and the courts – for more than 20 years, which helps ensure the integrity of our data systems.
- Customizable: Our solutions can be combined and adapted to fit individual customer needs.
- Industry-certified. Our solutions are certified and audited by independent certification bodies.
- Offers continuous and sustained performance. Our solutions meet long-term key performance indicators (KPIs).
