Session Description

The purpose of this session is to discuss the efforts being carried to deploy or support intelligent transportation systems for truck parking. Finding space available for truck parking is a problem in many jurisdictions. It poses challenges for safety in that commercial drivers need a safe place to rest from fatigue and to comply with hours of service rules. This session will cover progress being made towards providing truck parking information in real time to truckers on the road. Speakers will discuss various technological applications, such as video imaging, magnetometry, combined Doppler-radar-laser scanning, and others.
