The Intelligent Transportation Society of Alaska (ITS Alaska) is a nonprofit corporation that was established in January 2008 as a chartered state chapter of the national organization, ITS America. ITS Alaska has the potential to be a strong advocate for intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and foster an environment for members to share ideas, encourage interest and integration, stimulate public-private and institutional partnerships, and support ITS developers, implementers and policy makers.
Members of ITS Alaska will include those with an interest in advancing ITS deployment in Alaska, especially those in the transportation related industry. Members may represent colleges and universities, government agencies, organizations, associations, corporations, and individuals. With a wide variety of members, ITS Alaska will be able to carry out its mission: "to elevate safety and mobility through leadership and promote a strong innovative Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) community in Alaska."
A major task of ITS Alaska is to increase ITS awareness in Alaska. The ITS market in Alaska is mainly confined to the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities and the Municipality of Anchorage. Outside of these two agencies, ITS is not widely known or understood. Together with a wide variety of members, the power of cohesion and exchange of information, ITS Alaska can accomplish its goals.
