Most advanced surface transportation technologies now are pitched under the ITS rubric. In EuropeFor the band of the same name, see Europe (band . Europe is a continent forming the westermost part of the Eurasian supercontinent. Europe is bounded to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the west by the Atlantic Ocean, to the south by the Mediterranean Se, it is often called TelematicsThe term telematics is used in a number of ways: The integrated use of telecommunications and computer technology, also known as ICT (Information and Communications Technology). More narrowly and commonly, telematics is applied more specifically to the us.
