Abstract

The measurement of speed is the subject of analysis and publication of many researchers around the world. This issue is analyzed from the point of view of movement engineering, urban planning, logistics, but also the city management. The researches, initiated by the authors in this paper, are focused on measuring the time of vehicle journeys on the selected section of one of the main streets of Wroclaw. The aim of the chapter is to present the issues related to the analysis of measurement data from the ITS, which are aimed at supporting decision-making processes of those responsible for organizing transport in the city. For this purpose, the authors presented the basic theoretical issues of the study area and the approximate principles of operation of ITS systems. Then on the basis of quantitative analysis, the authors characterized the difficulties that may be encountered while drawing conclusions from the analysis of the collected data.
