Gerry Vickers Oct 3, 2011:
The 'D' in the Slovak would be 'dopravné' (transport). Whoever translated the title from Slovak to English was lazy with their research :)
Alexandra Lindqvist (asker) Oct 3, 2011:
sorry my bad eurlex turned out to be inconsistent and yes it appears to mean ITS
Alexandra Lindqvist (asker) Oct 3, 2011:
How about it it was the instiution responsible for this publication? In eurolex both English an slovak use the ITS acornym but pehaps "real" slovak practice is diffrent?
Dalibor Uhlik Oct 3, 2011:
it is probably about intelligent transport systems not integrated...sorry :)

ITS

Inteligentne dopravne systemy = IDS, therefore... Intelligent Transport Systems = ITS. Seems pretty obvious. However, since this is a book title, I'd quote it in English and Slovak. Also, a Google search for the title suggests that "IDS" isn't really a part of it.
