Automatic tracking and monitoring including immediate fire detection for dangerous goods in tunnels
Transport of dangerous goods across tunnels is at present a complicated paper based process. The proposed method involves smart card storage media, transponders to read the smart card from a roadside unit to track vehicles as they travel on their route, sensors to detect potential fires in vehicles within seconds and mobile control devices to verify proper function of the on-board equipment. The procedure is simplified and can be considered a safety improvement as the speed of transport increases, and, hence, the number of required vehicles on the road and their presence in dangerous locations is reduced.
