  • Patent number: 10444022
    Abstract: Traffic management methods for promoting environmentally friendly transportation include the following acts: transmitting, by a routing unit to a requesting road user, computed traffic route proposals that include different transport mechanisms; selecting a traffic route from the transmitted traffic route proposals, by the requesting road user, and transmitting the selected traffic route to the routing unit, which provides the road user with traffic route data for the selected traffic route; transmitting position data, from the road user, along the traffic route taken by the road user in order to validate the transportation mechanism used by the road user in the process; and rating a behavior of the road user based on the transportation used by the road user.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9129529
    Abstract: A traffic management system provides traffic information and allows controlling and influencing traffic in a traffic network, such as a street network in a city. The system includes a traffic management center with a generator for the central creation of an information message for road users. The traffic management system includes terminals to be carried along by the road users for receiving and outputting the information message. Data transmitters transfer the information message from the traffic management center to the terminal. The generators are configured to localize the information message by assigning a location code for destination-oriented transmission and/or output of the located information message. The location code represents a location or section of the traffic network relating to the information message. The road user on the move within the traffic network can be provided directly and explicitly with up-to-date information messages.
