Comet
Comet, the advanced traffic management and information system from Siemens, is the key component of a modern integrated traffic control centre. Using the latest UTMC standards, Comet easily integrates information from a wide range of systems into a single, seamless view of the current network situation with strategic management and control.
Comet users benefit from a regular programme of software releases to provide new and enhanced features. The latest software release provides users with an all-new strategy manager application incorporating a completely new approach to strategic management. In addition, further upgrades included in the most recent Comet release include the support for the latest UTMC specifications for ANPR cameras, extending the range of journey time monitoring capabilities from Comet.
With a scalable, modular design, Comet offers a customisable solution from a common set of software building blocks to provide the optimum implementation. This use of common software modules, in conjunction with an active user forum, provides a reliable solution which is effectively supported and offers expansion as needs change in the future to reflect changing policy and demands.
Using a Comet system allows traffic managers and operators to control and monitor their urban networks in a seamless, efficient operation, while delivering meaningful, timely and accurate information to the travelling public.
