Abstract The ATIS market has changed since 1993, as there were no products commercially available in 1993 that provided any combination of location, navigation, and route guidance. Currently, ATIS products and services on the market fall into one of two categories: live traffic information, and location, route guidance, and navigation products. Traffic information is available to consumers generally free of additional charge via existing broadcast and communications services, such as radio, cellular phones, and the internet. Location, route guidance, and navigation products are sold through direct mail and audio and computer retail channels and may require separate purchase of location and interface hardware in addition to digitized maps and navigation and routing software. No product currently available on the market marries these two service sets into a product that can incorporate live traffic information into route guidance. A list of commercially available ATIS products is contained at the end of this briefing. 35 p.
