An Integrated Platform of Traffic Management and Control for Ningbo, China

摘要

Starting with Ningbo, where a system of taxis equipped with satellite positioning systems and mobile communication was established, vehicle probe data collection techniques are presented for Asian metropolitan areas. This paper describes the function and method for constructing an integrated platform of traffic management and control in Ningbo. The integrated platform of traffic management and control is a complicated and advanced application system based on many years of work at traffic management infrastructure. The GIS is the core and most sub-applications were build on a GIS platform which included the traffic control system, the traffic police resources management system, the real-time road and traffic information system etc. The traffic police can monitor most of the information related to the traffic management by the integrated platform, if it is necessary, the traffic command can also be transferred by the platform.
