Electronic vehicle identification in the intelligent city

Intelligent Cities require intelligent solutions. Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are transport systems which provide communications, control technologies and also involves the application of information received to help manage and improve the operations of transport networks. ITS can help open up new ways of achieving safe, sustainable mobility in our society. These transport systems represent both new challenges and possibilities to current transport operations. New technologies are constantly developed and upgraded. Some examples include Variable Messaging Systems (VMS) on the highways and Urban Traffic Control (UTC). This study reviews one of the excitingly important ITS technologies called Electronic Vehicle Identification (EVI). The study would look at EVI in terms of possible deployment in the urban and inter-urban scenario and how it can began to form the building blocks of the Intelligent City
