Greetings!
Customer feedback has been driving the GEWI product development process since the company was founded in 1992. Feedback is so important to the evolution of the TIC Software product that it has been added as a product feature available to every TIC user.
GEWI User Groups are another important way GEWI connects with customers, read more in this issue. Also featured is Customer Project Manager Ronny Dittrich who was responsible for the recent Smart Work Zone (SWZ) to Navigation project in Germany.
Customers interested in Work Zones now have an off-the-shelf solution from GEWI and iCone which can be used for pilot or in production projects, read more below.
An 11 year GEWI customer in Australia has recently upgraded to TIC3 for their traffic service, and auto customers in Europe will soon benefit from eCall, for which TIC has been compliant since 2015.
Read also about GEWI at the DATEX II Forum and our upcoming Work Zone demonstration at ITS America, and more in this issue.
