| Abstract | The purpose of this research is to present a telematics platform which aims at addressing emerging problems of modern cities and relevant needs in terms of urban planning and maintenance. Many cities are today engaged in massive investments for infrastructure development and maintenance across many structural elements including lighting, traffic and transportation systems. In this context, leveraging the use of ICT in public transportation systems is key asset to enable the "urban innovation" bringing research results into real solutions for the smart cities in order to provide benefit for the citizen. To address the aforementioned needs, the authors propose GHOST ("Galileo EnHancement as BoOster of the Smart CiTies") a Location-Based Service (LBS) based on European GNSS (E-GNSS) and SBAS advance positioning. The goal of GHOST is to implement an Intelligent Transport System (ITS) for the public transport which is able to exploit the geo-referenced information of urban elements along the bus lines, monitoring them in a smart, continuous and autonomous way. |
