In this paper, we propose a method about the extraction of vehicle and tracking trajectory for moving vehicle tracking system in road. This system applied to the monitoring system of the traffic flow for ATMS(advanced traffic management system) of ITS(intelligent transport system). Also, this system can solve the problem of maintenance of loop sensor. And we detected vehicle using differential image analysis. Because of the road environment changes by real time. Therefore, the method to use background image is not suitable. And we used Kalman filter and innovation value and variable search area for vehicle tracking system. Previous method using fixed search area is sensitive to the moving trajectory and the speed of vehicle. Simulation results show that proposed method increases the possibility of traffic measurement more than fixed area traffic measurement system.

The section speed enforcement system measures the starting instantaneous speed, the The section speed enforcement system measures the starting instantaneous speed, the ending instantaneous speed, and the section average speed, and imposes fines only for the portion that has been speeding the most. However, according to the Road Traffic Act, most of the systems are installed on highways, so existing research has been conducted on highway sections. In this study, it is expected that the installation of section speed enforcement systems on general national roads will be expanded according to the revision of related laws. ITS collection and operation data targeting the section speed enforcement system installed on National Road 3 Seongnam Icheon-ro was used to analyze traffic speed, standard deviation of traffic speed, and reduction in traffic accidents by dividing it into before installation, trial operation period, and after crackdown. As a result of the analysis, the traffic speed, standard deviation, and traffic accidents decreased by 13%, 25%, and 70%, respectively, after installation, confirming that the installation of the section speed enforcement system greatly contributed to the reduction of accidents.

Currently, the permanent road traffic volume surveys under Road Act are conducted using a intrusive Automatic Vehicle Classification (AVC) equipments to classify 12 categories of vehicles. However, intrusive AVC equipment inevitably have friction with vehicles, and physical damage to sensors due to cracks in roads, plastic deformation, and road construction decreases the operation rate. As a result, accuracy and reliability in actual operation are deteriorated, and maintenance costs are also increasing. With the recent development of ITS technology, research to replace the intrusive AVC equipment is being conducted. However multiple equipments or self-built DB operations were required to classify 12 categories of vehicles. Therefore, this study attempted to prepare a method for classifying 12 categories of vehicles using vehicle specification information of the Vehicle Management Information System(VMIS), which is collected and managed in accordance with Motor Vehicle Management Act. In the future, it is expected to be used to upgrade and diversify road traffic statistics using vehicle specifications such as the introduction of a road traffic survey system using Automatic Number Plate Recognition(ANPR) and classification of eco-friendly vehicles.

In this study, a new method which can detect incidents in interrupted traffic flow was suggested. The applied method of detecting the incident is the Latin Square Analysis Method by using traffic traits. In the Latin Square Analysis, unlike other previously tried methods, the traffic situation was analyzed, this time considering the changes in traffic traits for each lane and for each time period. The data used in this study were the data observed in the actual field with fine weather. The traffic volumes, the vehicle speed and the occupancy rate were collected on the interrupted flow road. The data were collected in normal and incident situations. The incidents occurred on the second lane, the time of persistent incidents was set to 10 minutes. The Latin Square Analyses were performed using the collected data with the traffic volume, with the vehicle speed or with the occupancy rate. As a result in this study, in case of detecting the traffic situations with Latin Square Analysis, it will be more successful to apply traffic volume to detect the traffic situations than to apply other factors.

BMS(Bus Management System)의 핵심인 버스도착예정시간을 산출하는 데 있어서 기존 대부분의 도시에서는 시계열 모형의 이동평균법, 칼만필터링 등으로 버스도착예정시간을 예측하고 있으나 이는 급격한 통행량의 변화 또는 급작스러운 사고, 신호체계 등에 적응 할 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 주변 도로의 통행량에 따른 버스의 정류장 도착시간을 예측하는 방법을 제안 한다. 주변 도로의 통행량과 실제 버스의 통행시간을 실측하여 기록, 학습하고 모델링하여 미래의 버스의 운행시간을 예측하는 방법이다. 또, 이동평균법에 의한 버스도착시간 예측결과와 본 논문에서 제안하는 결과와 비교, 분석하였다.

The coefficient of permeability for a soil can be determined by the direct or the indirect method. The direct method of permeability can be performed either in the laboratory or in the field. The indirect method can be predicted from the soil-water characteristic curve. In this study, the coefficient of permeability for an unsaturated soil was determined by the modified apparatus of steady-state method (Klute, 1972) and was predicted from the equations of Brooks & Corey (1964) and van Genuchten (1980). The experimental results were compared with predicted coefficient of permeability and the applicability of the two equations (from Brooks & Corey, van Genuchten) was reviewed.

The primary objective of this study is to characterize traffic axle loadings that consider Korea specific traffic conditions for developing mechanistic-based pavement design method as a part of Korea Pavement Research Program(KPRP). Although the concept of equivalent single axle load(ESAL) has been generally used since the 1960s for the pavement design, the mechanistic-based pavement design procedure requires more accurate axle loading data on the specific pavement. In this study, axle loading data were collected according to vehicle type and highway functional classification. Axle-load spectrum was then standardized by cumulative density function(cdf), because the axle load spectrum could vary from the observed site, truck traffic volume, and truck type, Finally, this study presented the procedure and S-shaped exponential models for characterizing axle load spectra according to vehicle type and highway functional classification.

한국의 도로교통법에는 주취상태에서 운전을 하면 안 된다는 규정이 있다. 그런데 주취운전이라는 말보다 음주운전이라는 말이 더 널리 쓰이는 실정이다. 음주운전 역시 말 그대로 술을 마신 상태에서 하는 운전을 말한다. 우리나라를 비롯한 모든 나라에서는 주취운전의 위험성을 고려하여 이에 대한 단속 기준을 제시하고 있다. 한국은 혈중알콜농도를 확인하는데, 0.05를 단속 기준으로 삼고 있으며 현재 단속기준에 대한 논의가 이루어지고 있다. 경찰은 현재의 음주운전 단속 기준을 0.03%로 강화하는 것에 대하여 의견을 수렴 중이다.

This article proposes new method for estimating pedestrian quality of service(QOS) that is useful to changing pedestrian environment by examining pedestrian quality of service as well as developing new method that integrate qualitative variables into the estimating indicators for the pedestrian movement right. Based on survey questionnaire addressed to experts group, the obtained data for the indicators were analyzed through Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP). The results show that pedestrian traffic flow(quantitative figure: 52%), sidewalk geometric(quantitative figure: 16%), sidewalk usage behavior(qualitative figure: 11%) in commercial and business zone pointed out the importance of quantitative indicators such as pedestrian traffic flow, and sidewalk geometric. In addition, the results also show that pedestrian traffic flow(quantitative figure: 30%), sidewalk geometric(quantitative figure : 22%), sidewalk usage behavior(qualitative figure: 20%) indicate the significance of qualitative indicators such as pedestrian's sidewalk usage.
