NEXT is a solution for analysis, simulation and data forecasting concerning traffic, meteorology, incidents, among others, enabling the representation of a Real “Urban and Interurban” network incorporating forecasting techniques and algorithms using simulators.
Advanced traffic and transportation management systems need to, not only, work with real time information and act accordingly, but also foresee contingency measures.
NEXT works as a decision support system for operators, by forecasting information, simulating network constrains - such as incidents, events or changes in the network typology – and guiding operators through the decision process, advising them on the most effective steps to follow.
