Traffic speed mapping with cellular network signaling data by FOSS4G

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Mapping traffic speed on road networks is crucial for urban traffic management and the development of intelligent transportation systems. Traditionally, information regarding traffic speed can be obtained from locationfixed sensors, such as loop detectors and cameras; however, these methods are limited to major road crosses. Recently, a considerable attention has been paid to utilizing vehicles with mobile phones as probes for collecting traffic information.
This study proposes an open-source GIS approach to map traffic speeds in a road network. First, public service vehicles (PSVs) were identified from cellular network signaling data by measuring the similarity between cell-ID trajectories and bus routes. Then, the cell-ID trajectories of PSVs were refined into high-quality spatiotemporal trajectories, and projected onto the road network via heuristic global optimization. Finally, hourly traffic speed maps were computed by weighing the speeds of the PSVs in the road network. The approach was implemented using free and open source software for geospatial mapping stacks of toolkits (Python, TimescaleDB/PostGIS, Pandas/Pygmo2, and Matplotlib/Seaborn); this application demonstrated good results using cellular network signaling data and GPS trajectories collected in Huilongguan district, Beijing, China. Moreover, this demonstration illustrates that probe mobile monitoring is emerging as a critical technology for traffic monitoring supplements, which can help develop a comprehensive view of the roads and reduce the cost of monitoring a large area.
