Proposing a Data Model for the Representation of Real Time Road Traffic Flow
نویسنده
چکیده
Given recent developments in the fields of GIS data modelling, spatial data representation and storage in spatial databases, together with wireless Internet communications, it is becoming more obvious that the requirements for developing a real time road traffic information system are being met. This paper focuses on building a data model for traffic representation with support from the current free GIS resources, open source technologies and spatial databases. Community-created GIS maps can be used for easily populating an infrastructure model with accurate data; the spatial search features of relational databases can be used to map a given GPS position to the previously created network; open source ORM packages can be employed in mediating live traffic feeds into the model. A testing mechanism will be devised in order to verify the feasibility of the solution, considering performance

Method of Video-Measurements of Traffic Flow Characteristics at a Road Junction
In the theory of traffic flows the main characteristics are: intensity, speed, and density. They make it possible to use hydrodynamic models. In connection with the development of modern highways and road networks, traffic flows behavior is becoming more and more complex and diverse. In particular, the B.Kerner studies have shown that the laminar solution of hydrodynamic models is poorly corre...
متن کاملA neuro-fuzzy approach to vehicular traffic flow prediction for a metropolis in a developing country
Short-term prediction of traffic flow is central to alleviating congestion and controlling the negative impacts of environmental pollution resulting from vehicle emissions on both inter- and intra-urban highways. The strong need to monitor and control congestion time and costs for metropolis in developing countries has therefore motivated the current study. This paper establishes the applicatio...
متن کاملTraffic Condition Detection in Freeway by using Autocorrelation of Density and Flow
Traffic conditions vary over time, and therefore, traffic behavior should be modeled as a stochastic process. In this study, a probabilistic approach utilizing Autocorrelation is proposed to model the stochastic variation of traffic conditions, and subsequently, predict the traffic conditions. Using autocorrelation of the time series samples of density and flow which are collected from segments...
متن کاملAssessment of Trend and Seasonality in Road Accident Data: An Iranian Case Study
Background Road traffic accidents and their related deaths have become a major concern, particularly in developing countries. Iran has adopted a series of policies and interventions to control the high number of accidents occurring over the past few years. In this study we used a time series model to understand the trend of accidents, and ascertain the viability of applying ARIMA models on data...
متن کاملLiterature Review of Traffic Assignment: Static and Dynamic
Rapid urban growth is resulting into increase in travel demand and private vehicle ownership in urban areas. In the present scenario the existing infrastructure has failed to match the demand that leads to traffic congestion, vehicular pollution and accidents. With traffic congestion augmentation on the road, delay of commuters has increased and reliability of road network has decreased. Four s...
