| Summary | In 2003, the IOT has developed the traffic information combined with GIS (Geographic Information System) information input system and applied into 7 PRS (Police Radio Station) substations. Besides, the IOT built a WebGIS website and routing query system for the public to obtain real-time traffic information. To continue and speed up the real-time traffic information input tasks, the IOT started a 2-year project from 2004. In 2004, this project collected the exact longitude and latitude coordinates of national freeways and provincial highways to enhance traffic information location quality. One-way street and turning restriction information were also collected to improve routing accuracy. Moreover, the IOT built the National Traffic Information Center (e-traffic.iot.gov.tw) to compile the traffic information inputted by the PRS, Taiwan Area National Freeway Bureau, and the County (City) Governments. There are 3 organizations related with traffic information for the County (City) Governments. The traffic accident information reported by the Police Bureau, road construction information reported by the Public Works Bureau and Economic Development Bureau, and the traffic signal failure and traffic jam condition reported by the Transportation Bureau, the IOT assisted and trained 11 County (City) Governments to setup the real-time traffic information input system in 2004. In 2005, the IOT continued to improve the traffic information input interface more friendly and more effectively. Furthermore, the National Traffic Information Center integrated the traffic information from the PRS, Taiwan Area National Freeway Bureau, Directorate General of Highways and 23 County (City) Governments, and the public could inquire the comprehensive real-time information through WebGIS website. Besides, the value-added agencies could free apply and use the traffic information database for further applications. Meanwhile, there is one on-site support engineer to maintain the operation of the National Traffic Information Center. |
