This contribution reports about the design and development of an open and flexible framework called DLR Traffic Data Platform (TD-Platform) that is able to process most well known traffic data like (X)FCD, loop detector and traffic video data and fuse them ...
Variable speed limits (VSLs) displayed on roadside variable message signs (VMSs) have emerged as a widespread traffic control measure on motorways in many countries, leading to substantial traffic safety benefits; however, there is no clear evidence of imp ...
Cities with medium to high traffic volumes are expected to keep the traffic rolling in a most efficient way. Accidents, construction sites or large events are counteracting this effort. In addition, cities are facing the fact that traffic signal plans conf ...
This study proposes a framework for developing a pro-active system aiming at reducing motorway crash risk based on risk indicators. Although motorways are of safe road type by design, a crash if happens would be really severe. Reducing motorway crash risk ...
An efficient method to estimate queues at traffic lights is proposed. Using floating car data and providing flexible capabilities for data fusion, it yields high-quality estimates for the traffic states at traffic lights at quite realistic scenarios. ...
With the bigger number of cars on our roads every year, also the potential danger to die or get injured in road traffic increases. Most of these accidents are due to human error, while driver assistant systems like ESP help making traffic more safe. To inc ...
Vehicular networks, in which cars communicate wirelessly to exchange information on traffic conditions, offer a promising way to improve road safety. Yet ensuring the correct functioning of such a system is essential: malicious or faulty devices transmitti ...
We estimate a vehicle’s speed, wheelbase length, and its tire track length by jointly estimating its acoustic wave-pattern using a single passive acoustic sensor that records the vehicle’s drive-by noise. The acoustic wave-pattern is determined using three ...

Road traffic safety is receiving increasing attention. Different real-time safety indicators relying on traffic sensor data can be found in the literature. Some are based on the posterior analysis of crash and traffic data; while others are based on real t ...
Realistic simulation is a necessary tool for the proper evaluation of newly developed protocols for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs). Several recent efforts focus on achieving this goal. Yet, to this date, none of the proposed solutions fulfill all the r ...
