Abstract

Annual average daily traffic(AADT) serves as important basic data in the transportation sector. AADT is used as design traffic which is the basic traffic volume in transportation planning. Despite of its importance, at most locations, AADT is estimated using short term traffic counts. An accurate AADT is calculated through permanent traffic counts at limited locations. This study dealt with estimating AADT using various models considering both the spatial correlation and time series data. Kriging models which are commonly used spatial statistics methods were applied and compared with each model. Additionally the External Universal kriging model, which includes explanatory variables, was used to assure accuracy of AADT estimation. For evaluation of various kriging methods, AADT estimation error, proposed using national highway permanent traffic count data, was analyzed and their performances were compared. The result shows the accuracy enhancement of the AADT estimation.

연평균 일교통량(AADT)은 도로를 계획하고 설계하는데 있어 매우 중요한 기초자료로 활용된다. 상시 교통량 조사 자료는 연간 일교통량이 수집되어 AADT를 구할 수 있지만, 단기 교통량 조사(short-term traffic counts)의 경우 특정 기간에만 조사되므로 AADT를 추정하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 교통량 자료가 시공간적 특성을 동시에 지닌다는 점에 착안하여 공간통계방법을 이용하여 AADT를 추정하였다. 공간통계모형 중 보편적으로 이용되는 크리깅 모형을 적용하였으며, 여러 가지 크리깅 모형을 비교분석하였다. 또한 사회경제지표를 반영하여 AADT 추정 정확도를 높이는 방법에 대하여 알아보았다. 모형의 비교평가를 위하여 일반국도 상시조사 자료를 이용하여 제안된 모형의 AADT 추정오차를 분석하고, 적용된 다양한 크리깅 모형의 성능을 비교하였다. 이러한 연구결과는 AADT 추정 정확도를 향상시킴으로써 적정 수준의 교통시설 공급과 서비스 수준 향상에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
