Abstract Currently, there is an observable accelerated rate of growth in the number of vehicles traveling in cities, causing not only traffic problems, such as congestion, mobility, and automobile accidents, but also environmental and financial problems as a result of gases being emitted into the atmosphere, time spent in congestion, and number of accidents. To address such urban challenges, vehicular networks are used together with intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) to develop new technologies and services and assist in urban traffic engineering. These systems and services use a combination of various technologies to identify and monitor problems and assist in resolving them. In this chapter, we describe the main applications of ITSs using techniques developed for vehicular networks such as data dissemination, vehicle clouds, and others to provide not only an infrastructure for services that are useful to drivers and passengers but also tools to be used in urban mobility management.
