The objectives of this study were to evaluate pavement lane markings in a metropolitan road network and develop maintenance strategy for safe daytime night-time driving. To achieve this, data on the retroreflectivity physical defect ratio collected remotely using vehicle-mounted retroreflectometer high-resolution camera. was measured analyzed by type (city freeways, arterial roads, collector ro...

The accuracy of proposed model will play an essential role successful development GIS. This related nature GIS for mapping th...

Propagule pressure and habitat characteristics are important factors used to predict the distribution of invasive alien species. For species exhibiting strong propagule pressure because of human-mediated introduction of species, indicators of introduction potential must represent the behavioral characteristics of humans. This study examined 64 agricultural ponds to assess the visibility of pond...

Roads provide humans with a means of mobility between destinations, be it for transportation of goods and services or as a means of connecting with others. However, roads are also known to contribute toward a number of deleterious landscape processes, such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, pollution (e.g., chemical, noise and light) and animal mortality. Few studies however have investi...

Object-based image analysis is becoming increasingly popular in classification of very high resolution (VHR) imagery over urban areas. The spectral resolution of VHR imagery (generally they possesses 1 pan and 4 multispectral bands), however, is limited and insufficient for differentiating many urban land cover classes. Due to the spectral similarity of building roofs, roads and parking lots, s...

The article considers issues aimed at improving conditions and traffic safety of street road networks in cities the possibility using functional classification streets roads. development is inextricably linked to improvement networks. It street-road network that chain connects it with general ways communication. city cannot exist without public roads provide a large amount transportation, cargo...

With the recent advancements in image processing techniques and the increasing availability of high resolution satellite imagery, one has an increased ability to characterize human attributes. This paper will study the effects that image fusion has on the classification of Quickbird satellite imagery over a rural area in Eastern India. Two panchromatic sharpening algorithms will be used and com...

Consider a junction with n incoming and m outgoing roads. Along each road, the flow of traffic is described through the continuum model displaying phase transitions introduced in [5]. This note provides a Riemann solver for the resulting Riemann problem at the junction. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 35L65, 90B10.
