Intelligent Transportation Systems in Japan and South Korea

Market Environment, ITS National Projects, Key Players, and Forecasts



This study’s purpose is not to provide an exhaustive technical assessment of the technologies and industries covered, but rather to assess both Japanese and South Korean ITS service concepts, and those countries’ preparations for nationwide ITS services through field assessments and other projects.

With its existing VICS (Vehicle Information and Communication System) and advanced ITS solutions such as AHS (Advanced Cruise-Assist Highway System) and ASV (Advanced Safety Vehicle), Japan is leading the ITS market globally.

With matured market demand from users in fields such as telematics, LBS, and real-time traffic information, South Korea is also seeking systematic traffic information systems. These efforts are backed by the South Korean government.

The study presents a detailed evaluation of nationwide ITS projects such as ‘National ITS 21’ and ‘U-City’ in South Korea as well as ‘Smartway 2007’ in Japan. It closely examines the market environment and driving factors for ITS, ITS service concepts, and major participants’ activities in the markets. Other highlights of this report include ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) system deployments and outcomes, and DSRC-based applications such as cashless payment at parking lots and filling stations. Further, the report forecasts real-time traffic information subscribers, market volumes and revenue, and in-vehicle ETC terminal shipments and revenue for the period 2006 to 2012.
