斯坦泰克公司Stantec是一家位于埃德蒙顿的设计和咨询行业的国际公司。在 此外，Stantec是北方智能交通系统（ITS）行业的主要贡献者。 美国参考智能交通行业的最新发展是互联车辆（CV）技术，它有助于 车辆之间以及车辆与基础设施之间的无线通信， 环境加拿大交通部、省和市机构以及许多私营公司 将CV技术视为ITS行业的未来。认识到这一趋势，Stantec正在考虑 在交通基础设施的规划中采用CV技术。经过多次讨论， Stantec和阿尔伯塔大学的研究人员决定与阿尔伯塔大学合作 ITS研究团队将在行人安全的背景下研究CV技术的未来趋势， 信号优先控制并开发基于CV技术的原型平台。

Stantec Inc. (Stantec) is an Edmonton-based international company in the design and consulting industry. In addition, Stantec is a major contributor to the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) industry across North America. The latest development in the ITS industry is Connected Vehicles (CV) technology, which facilitates wireless communications between vehicles and between vehicles and infrastructure in a high-mobility environment. Transport Canada, provincial and municipal agencies, as well as many private companies envision CV technology as the future of the ITS industry. Recognizing this trend, Stantec is considering incorporating CV technology in its planning of transportation infrastructure. After several discussions between Stantec and the researchers at the University of Alberta (U of A), Stantec decided to partner with the U of A ITS research team to investigate the future trend of CV technology in the context of pedestrian safety and signal priority control and develop a prototype platform based on CV technology.
