IV2Splus was the successor of the recently completed programme IV2S (Intelligent Transport Systems and Services - 2002-06), which had three programme lines: A3 - Austrian Advanced Automotive Technology I2 - Intelligent Infrastructure ISB - Innovative Rail System
The research programme 'Future Mobility' is developing frameworks to build the mobility system of the future, a system to balance social, environmental and economic needs. The programme supports the development of systems that contribute significantly to ensuring mobility while minimising the
Intelligent solutions make travel easier and more predictable for citizens whether they choose to commute in their own vehicle or by public transportation.
The aim of intelligent transport is to shift the focus of transport policy away from the construction and maintenance of the transport network
The R&D of Finnish Maritime Administration focuses on research on waterborne transport operating environment, development of waterborne transport, development of services and service production of the administration and development of the administration as a whole. The R&D activities consist of
The research programme involves multidisciplinary traffic safety research in the areas of road, rail, and maritime traffic, with a main focus on technical countermeasures and applications. In the programme, applied and customer-oriented research is conducted to contribute to overall traffic safety.
As a result of increasing global integration and societal mobility, the international aeronautics industry is experiencing dynamic growth. It is one of the most sophisticated sectors with a strong influence on other industry and service sectors and air traffic is expected to double in Europe by 2020
Combined transport as a sustainable alternative to the road transport aims to carry goods in transit primarily on railways and waterways. The extension of combined transport leads to more road safety and less heavy traffic on the road network. Combined road/rail/ship transport of goods represents an
An intelligent transport system utilises information and communication technologies and related services, i.e. transport telematics. The FITS programme aims at developing public and private ITS or transport telematics services and the related information infrastructures. The programme started in
In August 2003, the Finnish Ministry of Transport and Communications published an accessibility strategy "Towards Accessible Transport". The document was prepared in co-operation with different Ministries, the Association of Finnish Local and Regional Authorities and public organisations operating
