Abstract
The problem of the cost/benefit evaluation at ITS implementation stands for one of the key questions during the system planning. As all the intelligent transport systems are based on the intensive exploitation of information, the question of information value is of a significant meaning. One approaches the problem in a various manners, mostly yet by calculation of the economic effects "post factum". But this method is of low convenience and usefulness, as it may rely mostly on the experience, which brings always some errors resulted by the solutions and circumstances uniqueness. In the paper there are discussed evaluation approaches based on subjective value assessment and probabilistic decision model, in which a value of information is measured as the effect of it influence on decision choice, with considering the probabilities of a given decision circumstances. Obviously, this method have to be applied "ante-factum".
