Study of Travel Time Prediction by Using Online ATIS and Probe Vehicle in Beijing

Abstract:

With the rapid development of urban traffic, travel time had become the crucial factor for road-user to make decisions on means of transportation, path finding. Besides, emerging information technology, such as Traffic information technology, GIS (Geographic Information System) technology and etc, that have promoted the tendency that people are inclining to plan personal travel through Dynamic Route Guidance System characterized as travel time prediction according to real-time traffic data. In this paper, it first proposed the factors of selecting the test O-D (original-destination), which travel time will be predicted by GoogleMap, BaiduMap, SogouMap and SOSOMap, for comparison, probe vehicle would run along the route provided by those online ATIS (advanced traveler information system) to check the accuracy of travel time predicted. Finally, it analyzes and assesses the service of travel time prediction of such systems.
