Abstract

Dynamic GIS is a system that allows the changes in time for various features and objects be considered updating the system in real-time. An example of such a system is integration of Automatic Vehicle Location and Navigation System (AVLNS) with GIS. This paper describes design and implementation aspects of a Dynamic GIS with emphasis on analysis of optimum route finding. This system is able to monitor movements of vehicles in real-time at the control center. If a vehicle is located in traffic jam, an automatic message is sent to the user and then a buffer is established around the vehicle position on the digital map available in the computer at the control center. Based on analysis capabilities of dynamic GIS, the closest junction with respect to the vehicle position is found and from this junction the next shortest path to the final destination will be determined based on shortest time-distance functions. Then, a message containing new path for the vehicle is sent to the driver for changing his/her route. Using this system, it is possible to analyze Geo-referenced information based on real-time positioning data for various moving vehicles and make decisions for “optimum route finding in real-time” and “Defining exclusion and inclusion zones for vehicles and controlling their operational regions”.
