A method of road traffic analysis based on the behavior of cell phone users
Journal Title: Computer Science and Mathematical Modelling - Year 2009, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
In this paper a possibility to use data describing mobile phone users’ behavior to derive road traffic information is investigated. The formal models of location data, road (as a simple polygonal chain) and its coverage by a cellular network are proposed and defined. With the use of these models a problem of deriving traffic situation information is formulated.A method to calculate road traffic information from location data stream is described. In order to verify the proposed method, it was applied to a real-world data (Kraków-Zakopane road) obtained from the network of one of the mobile network operators in Poland. The results of computations are provided and analyzed. The derived traffic information is compared to the one which was obtained during an actually performed test-drive.
