(NASDAQ: ITI), the global leader in applied informatics for transportation and agriculture, today announced that Transport Canada, Canada’s federal transportation agency, has selected Iteris iPeMS® to support its countrywide transportation system’s performance management program.

Utilizing real-time and archived traffic data from HERE Technologies – a global leader in mapping and location platform services – iPeMS provides Transport Canada with analytics and visualizations for car and truck-based traffic data.

The fully enhanced platform will be released later this year.

“It is our honor and privilege to support Transport Canada’s goal of improving the performance of its roadways, as well as the safety and quality of life of the travelling public,” said Scott Perley, vice president of Transportation Systems at Iteris. “With the implementation of Iteris’ advanced iPeMS platform, Transport Canada will be able to apply analytics to make Canada’s roads safer and more efficient on a national scale.”

Transport Canada joins over 20 government agencies and municipalities throughout North America, including the South Carolina Department of Transportation, the Utah Department of Transportation, the Virginia Department of Transportation, the California Department of Transportation and the City of Toronto, that use the powerful analytics and visualization capabilities of iPeMS to manage, measure and optimize complex transportation networks.
