The IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Society (ITSS) is a professional society of the IEEE.
and electronics engineering and information technologies
as applied to Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), defined as those systems utilizing synergistic technologies and systems engineering
concepts to develop and improve transportation systems of all kinds.".
The ITS Society also publishes a widely-read quarterly Newsletter, available on its website and through email.

Started in 1998, the ITS Society's flagship conference series, the IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Conferences (ITSC) target basic research
and applications of leading advances in communications, computer, control, and electronics technologies related to Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).
The Intelligent Vehicles (IV) Symposium, an annual forum sponsored by the IEEE ITS Society, gathers researchers from industry
and universities
to discuss research and applications for Intelligent Vehicles and Intelligent Infrastructures. IV papers deal with all aspects of vehicle-related intelligent systems
and cooperation between vehicles and infrastructure

The ITS Society also sponsors the following annual conference series: the IEEE International Conference on Service Operations, Logistics and Informatics (SOLI), covering innovative research related to services/logistics design, innovations, marketing
, operations, and informatics; the IEEE International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications (MESA), focusing on mechatronic (integration between the components/hardware and the information-driven functions/software) and embedded systems; and the IEEE International Conference on Intelligence and Security Informatics (ISI), studying the development and use of advanced information technologies for local, national/international, and global security related applications through an integrated technological, organizational, behavioral, and policy based approach.
Field of Interest
The IEEE ITS Society states on its website that its Field of Interest is in "theoretical, experimental and operational aspects of electricalElectrical engineering
Electrical engineering is a field of engineering that generally deals with the study and application of electricity, electronics and electromagnetism. The field first became an identifiable occupation in the late nineteenth century after commercialization of the electric telegraph and electrical...
