The last quarter of the country has seen the Central and Eastern Europe's countries go through a long way of change and transformation. The public transport system has also thoroughly changed. Nowadays, the public transport system's most important attributes are high quality of transport services and the continuous offer enrichment. These characteristics are part of the competition for the passenger. One of the elements of the services offer enrichment is the modern information technologies utilisation. This is the way you to acquire new and satisfied passengers who use public transport services. We are at the verge of the new European Union's structural-funds financial perspective.  Numerous cities need to replace the depreciated rolling stock assets; in addition to that, these cities will also make use of cutting-edge information technologies.

 Whenever the  Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)  slogan pops out, it is  usually referred to as the tolling and ticketing system for public transport users, the new route location systems or optimisation of passenger-car journeys in the intense city congestion. This topic seems to have little or no relation to the public transport. This has risen the need to organise the    conference  whose objective is cross-sectional presentation   of modern technologies which can be used in municipal transport.

The conference includes the following topics:

•  formal and legal conditions for automatic, contactless detection systems for electronic media tickets, the issue of personal data protection and surveillance prevention in the context of comprehensive information retrieval with regards to the movements of the passengers - the bearer of the particular ticket. advantages and disadvantages of ticket-cards personalization,
• practical use of the systems for fleet management and supervision as well as communication with the drivers operated from the dispatcher's work station,
• public transport vehicles detection systems and priority assignment rights,
• passenger counting system - technology, data transfer modes, analysis, reporting and the data usefulness,
• organization system for intermodal transfers (eg. train / bus) with particular emphasis on organization and information solutions in the case of delays.

The conference will be held on 10th October 2014. Click for more information; www.igkm.pl.
