Retrieval of Similar Travel Routes Using GPS Tracklog Place Names
نویسندگان
چکیده
GPS tracklogs provide a valuable record of routes travelled. In this paper we describe initial experiments exploring the use of text information retrieval techniques for the location of similar trips from within a GPS tracklog. We performed the experiment on a dataset of 528 individual trips gathered over a seven month time period from a single user. The results of our preliminary study suggest that traditional text-based information retrieval techniques can indeed be used to locate similar and related tracklogs.

Quantifying Route Quality through Viability Indices using Actual Travel Time Data
Travel time data becomes widely available with the deployments of location-based technologies including GPS-equipped vehicles and cell phones, Bluetooth readers, Dedicated Short Range Communication devices, etc. This change has made a shift on the existing distance or historical speed based route guidance to travel time-based route guidance. For example, commercial GP-based navigation system ut...

The study is about harvesting point of interest from GPS trajectories. Trajectories are the paths that moving objects move by follow through space in a function of time while GPS trajectories generally are point-sequences with geographic coordinates, time stamp, speed and heading. User can get information from GPS enable device. For example, user can acquire present location, search the informa...
متن کاملCombining GPS, GIS, and accelerometry: methodological issues in the assessment of location and intensity of travel behaviors.
BACKGROUND Global positioning systems (GPS), geographic information systems (GIS), and accelerometers are powerful tools to explain activity within a built environment, yet little integration of these tools has taken place. This study aimed to assess the feasibility of combining GPS, GIS, and accelerometry to understand transport-related physical activity (TPA) in adults. METHODS Forty adults...
متن کاملCrowdPath: A Framework for Next Generation Routing Services Using Volunteered Geographic Information
Our proposed system CrowdPath is based on the hypothesis that people know their commute area better than conventional routing services that use traditional digital roadmaps and shortest path algorithms. The knowledge and experiences of drivers reflected in volunteered commute routes may provide better routes. By leveraging such available volunteered geographic information (VGI), our goal is to ...

Much of the taxi route-planning literature has focused on driver strategies for finding passengers and determining the hot spot pick-up locations using historical global positioning system (GPS) trajectories of taxis based on driver experience, distance from the passenger drop-off location to the next passenger pick-up location and the waiting times at recommended locations for the next passeng...
