Skymeter Publications (by topic)
Acceptance: for wide adoption of vehicle metering, it is crucial that systems be designed to be acceptable to drivers. Key acceptability papers (.pdf) are: Tollways - What Would Steve Jobs Do, The New Face of Road Pricing - Designing For Public Acceptance, The Six Pillars of Acceptance.
Applications of Metering: metering is useful in many transport sectors, including parking, car sharing and leasing, road pricing, insurance, emissions, fleets and (.pdf): Managing Jitney Services.
Financial Grade GPS: FGPS systems must bill accurately, be private, provide evidence and have a low cost. Key FGPS papers (.pdf) are: Is Galileo Enough, The Case Against Map Matching.
Megaregion Policy Options: metering has the greatest impact on parking and emissions if it operates pervasively across a large urban region. Key megaregion policy papers (.pdf) are: More Carrot Less Stick, Constructive Criticism, How to Toll a Country for Free.
Parking: infrastructure-free parking improves space management and availability, lowers costs, reduces spillover, reduces congestion and cuts emissions. Key parking papers (.pdf) are: Parking by Satelllite, Parking Man 2008, The Low Cost of Parking Everywhere, Shoup Made Visible.
Privacy: GPS metering can be made to be far more private than other payment mechanisms. Access to trip data can be highly restricted exactly as Garmin or TomTom does now. Key privacy papers (.pdf) are: Fatter Matters, Data Protection Act.
Tolling: is on an upswing and moving from individual roads to wide-area networks, to address transport funding, demand management and emissions. Key tolling papers (.pdf) are: A New Paradigm for Using GPS for Road Tolling , The Long View on Tolling , Grush ITS arab 080220 , Tolls on the Map , 10 Reasons .
Wicked Problems: road funding is an example of a wicked problem. The symptoms of the problem - such as traffic jams - are everywhere, and the solutions are known but not implemented. Key wicked problem papers (.pdf) are: Wicked Problems This Summer 2010 , Strong Theory Weak Dialogue .
