Реферат: A system and method for measuring the real traffic flow of an area is provided. The system uses images of vehicles and pedestrians taken from the sky in time intervals of an area. It also uses continuous tracking data for vehicles and pedestrians, provided by navigator manufacturers, map providers, route applications or by phone carriers. Both, images and continuous tracking data, are combined and processed by a processor that applies an image pattern recognition software to the images so that each vehicle and pedestrian comprised in the images is recognized and labeled for which a tracking data is available. The system identifies those vehicles and pedestrians contained in both databases and apply a weight to them. Then, the system is able to estimate the flow and the total number of vehicles and pedestrians for a particular time and area. Additionally, the system is able to calculate a pattern and a profile for each vehicle or pedestrian based on the continuous tracking data.
Proactive re-routing of vehicles to control traffic flow
