Application of Web 2.0 Technologies for Integration of Land-use and Transportation System

摘要

Transportation networks are the life line of any city but only when the decision of land-use system andudtransportation system are integrated in smart and intelligent ways. The present paper examines theudcomplexities of development and planning decision that are embedded in the process for finding an effectiveudsolution for integration of land-use and transportation system. The present paper also answers the questionudthat how society democratically and effectively access to Web 2.0 technologies for spatial information andudtranslate the virtually tested, analyzed design in the real world. In overall, the paper tries to frame a conceptudto use Web 2.0 technologies as a tool for establishing Intelligent Transportation System within the existingudland-use system. No doubt Web 2.0 technologies in the cybernetic age is the fastest way to access, collect,udanalyze and transfer spatial information and providing innovative, sustainable, participatory solutions forudeffective government and community empowerment. However, the use of Web 2.0 technologies inudtransportation system is not the part of smart city model in India. Hence, the paper will act as a guidingudprinciple and methodology for Smart City Mission in India. The paper also suggests the possible ways toudestablish Web 2.0 technologies applications for intelligent transport system through community base localudNeighbourhood Digital Technology Center (NDTC). The establishment of NDTC will give local urbanudcommunity free hand to tailored or customized Web 2.0 software as per their need and requirement andudgenerate or manipulate their own information or spatial data rather than given answer or raised query to theudpredefined proposed land-use map.
