A Study on Determining the Priorities of ITS Services Using Analytic Hierarchy and Network Processes

摘要

Daegu Metropolitan City is currently in the process of implementing an Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) basic plan in order to establish these systems and the foundation of basic services, in addition to setting establishment goals based on the national basic plan of ITS. Some criteria have proven to be very effective at determining the priorities of ITS services, measuring their contribution to solving transportation problems, identifying the services preferred by users, and evaluating ITS systems and related technologies. In this study, the authors prioritize six ITS services using the Analytic Network Process (ANP), which considers mutual dependence between the evaluation items and alternatives. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), meanwhile, is a one-way process that does not consider the independence of feedback from the services. According to the results of the super decisions ratings, the Regional Traffic Information Center System was chosen to be the top priority project followed by the Urban Arterial Incident Management System and the Bus Information System.
