Floating Car Data Analysis of Urban Road Networks

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 1798))

Abstract

A model for the analysis of floating car data (FCD) in urban road networks is proposed. In contrast to freeway traffic, structural features such as traffic lights are shown to dominate the dynamics – in a quasistationary picture – of such a network. Principles for obtaining a segment travel time depending on the mean vehicle density are discussed. Some remarks for the determination of this state variable are given, also on several segments.
