An approach from the economic science viewpoint is applied to the research on the influence of telematics development on the development of a transportation system. A qualitative instrument of such a research is the study of the creation, utilisation and perception of the value potential of a contemporary transportation system. For the purpose of such a research a transportation system being a subsystem of a socio-economic system may be treated as a set of quantitative and qualitative relationships of their elements, linking these elements into one functional entity. The study of the structures of such a system, i.e. the identification of the existing relationships and the definition of new relationships allows further discussion on possible effects of the implementation of telematic systems which could change–among others–the information availability of the transportation. The transformations of the transportation system resulting from the implementation of the information technologies cause the changes of the system perception by the environment. The current paper covers the topic of modelling of these transformations.
