Low-cost monitoring cameras/webcams provide unique visual information. To take advantage of the vast image dataset captured by a typical webcam, we consider the problem of retrieving weather information from a database of still images. The task is to autom ...
Within the research project KOLINE a cooperative system for urban road transport is developed. Its traffic related goals are to reduce travel time and fuel consumption as well as noise and pollutant emissions. The herein described evaluation shall determin ...
Pricing is considered an effective management policy to reduce traffic congestion in transportation networks. In this paper we combine a macroscopic model of traffic congestion in urban networks with an agent-based simulator to study congestion pricing sch ...
This paper presents the concept of a methodology for identifying in real time risky motorway traffic conditions. This research effort is to automate the extraction of traffic patterns from large data archives using advanced computing techniques. These patt ...
Road traffic crashes are becoming increasing concerns in many countries. In Europe, many efforts have been devoted to improve road traffic safety yet the important target of halving the number of yearly road deaths in 2010 could not be achieved in many Eur ...
This paper studies the flight path planning problem for a large-scale air traffic management (ATM) system. The goal is to find the optimal 4D path plan, represented by a sequence of waypoints and the corresponding time stamps, for each individual flight su ...
For uninterrupted traffic flow, it is well-known that the fundamental diagram (FD) describes the relationship between traffic flow and density under steady state. For interrupted traffic flow on a signalized road, it has been recognized that the arterial f ...
This article describes a new approach to the macroscopic first order modeling and simulation of traffic flow in complex urban road intersections. The framework is theoretically sound, operational, and comprises a large body of models presented so far in th ...
The use of the hard shoulder/emergency lane (EL) is analysed in the current research, with case study the first experimental application of emergency lane use undertaken in Switzerland (Morges - Écublens). The EL is activated during peak hours and when con ...
To keep the freeway networks in a good condition, road works such as maintenance and reconstruction are carried out regularly. The resulting work zones including the related traffic management measures, give different traffic capacities of the infrastructu ...
