The arrival of automated driving is creating challenges for every organization which deals with roads and automobiles, and this includes GEWI as well as the GEWI customers worldwide.
There has been a significant increase in requests from GEWI customers involving data which will be used by automated driving, particularly in providing real-time, highly accurate Work Zone data.
Read MoreGEWI was founded in 1992 on for the purpose of distributing traffic and travel information. From the earliest days of the TIC Software (known then as TMC Office), GEWI software was designed to distribute traffic data to navigation devices. First in RDS-TMC format, and as technology advanced, also in TPEG format.
Read MoreGEWI has been solving the complex problem of data exchange between disparate systems for nearly 20 years. Much experience was gained in a European project to exchange traffic data between 22 different countries in 7 different languages. This experience provided the basis for the architecture of the TIC product.
Read MoreEvery year GEWI staff from all over the world come together to review the year, discuss new product ideas, and plan the upcoming year. During the workshop held in Spreewald, Germany, much time was spent on improving Business Processes (BP), User Experience (UX), and new features to be used with the TIC for Work Zone Solution.
Read MoreGEWI’s TIC Software uses traffic flow related to the location of the event, to enable operators to confirm roadway conditions, and to alert them to changing roadway conditions. Seamless integration of traffic flow data into TIC makes it simple for operators to check the accuracy of the information.
Read MoreTwo GEWI executives will be sharing their experience at major upcoming conferences to be held in Australia and Denmark.
GEWI’s Danny Woolard will be speaking in the Data Infrastructure, Vehicle and Network Safety session at the upcoming Australian Intelligent Transport Systems Summit in Sydney Australia and GEWI founder Hagen Geppert will be speaking in a session entitled “Making Work Zones Smarter” on 20 September at ITS World Congress in Copenhagen.
Read MoreGEWI has continued to improve the TIC Analytics feature since it was released in 2016. TIC Analytics can be used to analyze a number of statistics, calculated using operational data in the TIC system.

This feature provides operators at Traffic Management Centers with a powerful tool when planning work zones, or preparing to respond to an incident.
Read MoreThe accuracy of traffic flow data has increased significantly over the past years, as more location data is available through phones, applications, and even the vehicles themselves. Traffic flow information is an extremely useful tool for traffic center operators to verify the impact of an event of an incident.
Read MoreSafety in Work Zones is a significant problem worldwide. The main cause for Work Zone crashes is drivers being unaware of the approaching hazard. An off-the-shelf solution is now available and will be demonstrated by GEWI, HERE, and iCone at the upcoming ITS America conference 4-7 June, in Detroit Michigan.
