Esri Canada to make Intelligent Transportation Systems smarter with GIS
Geographic information systems connect spatial data from numerous sources using location, improving decisions on how to increase transportation efficiency, safety and sustainability TORONTO, May 14, 2025 /CNW/ - Esri Canada today announced a strategic expansion into the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) sector. This move highlights Esri Canada's commitment to providing innovative Intelligent Transportation Solutions that leverage geographic information system (GIS) technology to help improve safety, urban mobility and enhance transportation infrastructure safety and sustainability across Canada. Leading this initiative is Daniel Kligerman, Esri Canada's Director of Intelligent Transportation Solutions. With over 25 years of experience with Internet of Things, Smart Cities and the transportation technology industry, Mr. Kligerman brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the team. Under his leadership, Esri Canada will collaborate with municipalities, transportation agencies and private sector partners to develop effective Intelligent Transportation Solutions tailored to the unique needs of Canadian cities. "Transportation concerns such as reducing traffic congestion, road collisions and carbon emissions are inherently spatial," says Daniel Kligerman, director, ITS, Esri Canada. "Intelligent Transportation Solutions powered by GIS use location to integrate real-time data from various ITS sensors and systems and visualize them as maps and digital twins, revealing patterns and insights that help planners and traffic managers make better decisions." GIS makes ITS smarter by: Improving mobility through providing real-time traffic insights, optimizing routing, identifying congestion hotspots, analyzing accidents and emergency response, and integrating public transport systems with traffic management to promote multi-modal transportation. Enhancing road safety through enabling real-time incident management, safety hazards analysis for risk mitigation, better infrastructure design for pedestrian and cyclist safety, enhanced safety planning and visibility of traffic conditions for better decisions and emergency response. Promoting sustainability through optimizing resource allocation, identifying alternative routes or modes of transport to reduce carbon emissions, supporting eco-friendly initiatives such as bike lanes and electronic vehicle charging stations, and designing efficient public transport networks. Esri Canada's ITS solutions are built on ArcGIS, the world's most comprehensive GIS platform. These solutions include the Transportation - GeoXchange®, which facilitates the efficient exchange of insights, enabling collaborative, data-driven decisions.

Parker Kligerman loses appeal after having NASCAR Truck Series win erased by disqualification
ATLANTA — Parker Kligerman on Thursday lost his appeal after having his NASCAR Truck Series season-opening win at Daytona erased by a disqualification. NASCAR disqualified Kligerman's No. 75 on Friday night when his truck was found to be too low in a postrace inspection. Corey Heim was declared the new winner. Kligerman immediately announced plans to appeal the ruling. That appeal was denied on Thursday by the National Motorsports Appeals Panel. The panel upheld NASCAR's original finding by ruling 'The panel confirms it is more likely than not a rules violation did occur and the disqualification penalties in Rule 10.5.2.4 necessitate a race disqualification.' The adjustment to the standings gave actor Frankie Muniz his first career top-10 finish. Kligerman retired from full-time racing at the end of last season and has a larger role as a television analyst this year. He is not entered in Saturday's Atlanta Truck Series race. ___ AP auto racing:

NASCAR disqualifies Kligerman for too-low truck after flag-planting win at Daytona. He is appealing
Full-time television analyst and part-time NASCAR driver Parker Kligerman claimed the checkered flag for the Truck Series season opener and promptly planted it in the grass by the Daytona International Speedway logo. It's a winning tradition that journeyman Kligerman had done for all three of his truck wins, the first back at Talladega in 2012. So it seemed appropriate Friday night for what Kligerman called the 'biggest win of my entire life' in a raucous postrace celebration. But it was a short party: NASCAR disqualified Kligerman when his truck was found to be too low in a postrace inspection. Corey Heim was declared the new winner, and the adjustment to the standings gave actor Frankie Muniz his first career top-10 finish. Muniz is running the full Truck Series schedule this year as he attempts to juggle a second career as a motorsports driver. Kligerman, who retired from full-time racing at the end of last season and will have a larger role as a television analyst this year, said Saturday he would appeal the disqualification as he prepared to work the Xfinity Series race for the The CW network. 'Biggest win of my life. Thank y'all for the wonderful messages. Over 700 texts,' he added on social media. "I will not be commenting any further until we are able to present what I believe is a very, very valid case. 'Until then, I'm fully focused on my job (as Xfinity analyst) because the drivers and teams deserve the full focus on the massive stage ahead of them.' Kligerman crossed the finish line first Friday night for what would have been his fourth career victory in the Truck Series, his first win since Mid-Ohio in 2022. His postrace celebration was popular and he rallied the crowd by telling the spectators in the grandstands "all of you fans here at Daytona, thank you so much! God, I love this place. I love racing. I love winning. Kligerman called it quits on full-time racing at the end of last year and is shifting into another side of motorsports with his growing broadcasting career. He was backed for years by Scott Borchetta, founder of the Big Machine Label Group, and was a fan favorite despite never winning in 152 races in NASCAR's top Cup and Xfinity Series. He had a respectable career, nonetheless, but at 34 years old, Kligerman decided his future is in broadcasting. The CW has the entire Xfinity Series schedule and Kligerman is called by NBC Sports 'one of the youngest correspondents to ever serve as a pit reporter for a NASCAR Cup race.' The disqualification is a second NASCAR heartbreak for Kligerman. He nearly won the Xfinity Series race last fall at The Roval at Charlotte Motor Speedway but NASCAR threw a late caution flag just seconds before Kligerman crossed under the white flag, which would have made the race official. Kligerman instead lost the race in overtime. A win would have advanced him in the Xfinity Series playoffs and been the first in that series for Kligerman. ___ AP auto racing: Jenna Fryer, The Associated Press
