to leverage the advantages of open stand- ards, allowing equipment and sub-systems from different suppliers to work effectively together. Osprey uses three key modules to deliver an effective ITS system; Control – which is the core UTMC common database, Inform – that provides a suite of function- ality to deliver real-time traffic and travel information to third parties and the public, and Analyse – a comprehensive back office data analysis capability. UTMC systems commonly work with a

to achieve an integrated system environ- ment. Examples include traffic signal con- trol using SCOOT, integration of CCTV to monitor the network, car park occupancy information and Variable Message Signs to convey information to drivers. In addition, work is being undertaken to more closely align the UTMC Technical Specification with DATEX II, the European standard for traffic related data. This type of platform is therefore not only mature, but is also being used across the UK by the majority of highway authorities, and offers a route for emerging technologies to be used directly


by traffic systems and to share information across a wide spectrum of stakeholders.


COMING UP FOR AIR An example of the way in which UTMC sys- tems offer a pathway to integrate different systems and allow future technologies to be more easily assimilated is with the use of air quality monitoring. In January 2017, Air Quality in London hit the headlines, with high pollution levels resulting in the poorest categorisation band of 10 being issued for the first time since the current system has been used.
