AIT Austrian Institute of Technology

 

AIT takes a leading position in the Austrian innovation system and a key role in Europe as Research and Technology Organization (RTO). As a national and international network node at the interface of science and industry, AIT enables innovation through its scientific-technological expertise, market experience, tight customer relationships and high quality research infrastructure.

The AIT Center for Mobility Systems develops efficient, safe and green mobility solutions with focus on improving transport infrastructure in terms of increased safety and cost-efficiency in operation and maintenance and focus on optimisation of co-modal transport systems.

TheTransportation Infrastructure Technologies Business Unit concentrates on research on safe, efficient and environmentally sustainable solutions for the transport infrastructure. Using ultra-precise measuring data on road conditions, route mapping, road space and the structural behaviour of the infrastructure, the team of around 30 researchers carries out infrastructure-based analyses and simulations geared towards improved road safety, cost-effective maintenance management and the greater environmental sustainability of the infrastructure.
