Transportation alert mechanism for key bottleneck section and transportation gallery implemented by Big Data Technology

  • Date:2019-03-04
  • Update:2019-03-04
  • Department:IOT

Overview:

  By investigating the massive transportation recorded by ETC and VD along the freeways and provincial highways, the connection between the weather, activities, accidents and traffic characteristic s are analyzed in this Plan in order to establish the transportation prediction mode and alert system in I-Lan and Kenting areas. In the meantime, the bid data analysis technology is also used to provide the traffic alert and real-time traffic tendency related information for the competent transportation authority to work out countermeasures in advance and to warn the road users to avoid congested section and alternative information in order to ease the congested traffic in the bottleneck road section.

Research result:

  • With the transportation information collected by the equipment deployed along the road side, the transportation characteristics of road sections excavated by means of data investigation method was based to develop the transportation alert mechanism of the key bottleneck section and transportation gallery while considering the different types of transportation, the date, the season, activities and other potential variables.
  • In this Plan, the meter board required for logging the historical transportation data during consecutive holidays and the alert is established. It can predict the traffic flow, congested bottleneck section and journey time at different time points along the predicted road section during consecutive holidays in the future.
  • The inquiry platform required for the application of big data is also implemented for providing application referential data required by competent authorities such as MOTC and local government for developing effective traffic control strategies.

  The big data technology is introduced in this Plan for developing the traffic alert mechanism and establishing the prediction mode. In the future, the research mode specified in this Plan will be based for conducting the experience replication and promotion in order that it will be extended to the similar road gallery controlled by these six direct jurisdiction cities or other competent authorities.

  Using this Plan as the model example and the research result obtained from the Data Sharing Plan developed by the Research institute, the big data technology will be promoted to MOTC and its subordinating agencies for processing the authorized operations.
