Rapid urbanization and increasing demand for transportation burdens urban road infrastructures. The interplay of number of vehicles and available road capacity on their routes determines the level of congestion. Although approaches to modify demand and capacity exist, the possible limits of congestion alleviation by only modifying route choices have not been systematically studied. Here we coup...
متن کاملUnderstanding Road Usage Patterns in Urban Areas
In this paper, we combine the most complete record of daily mobility, based on large-scale mobile phone data, with detailed Geographic Information System (GIS) data, uncovering previously hidden patterns in urban road usage. We find that the major usage of each road segment can be traced to its own--surprisingly few--driver sources. Based on this finding we propose a network of road usage by de...
متن کاملUnderstanding ERS Coherence over Urban Areas
C-band SAR interferometry has been widely used for several Earth related studies (topography, volcanology, forestry etc.). Nevertheless, not much attention has been paid to urban areas and coherence has been used for classification purposes only. In this study we focused on the meaning of coherence of an urban area and performed several analysis in order to understand what causes decorrelation....

The paper will describe the results of research recently completed, funded by Transfund New Zealand, into the phenomenon of traffic peak spreading in congested urban environments. The work looked specifically at two facets: 4 the extent to which traffic peak spreading has been observed and the underlying behavioural aspects 4 how (if) traffic peak spreading is modeled in different countries and...
