This study investigates the effect of real-time traffic information on the traffic flows in Korea. Recently, the development of smartphones has made it easier to use the route guidance service based on real-time traffic information. By the Big Data analysis in the study, it was found that the number of postings on the web community sites increased sharply in 2010 and 2011 when the smartphones spread widely. In the analysis of the traffic speeds by time, the average traffic speeds for morning and evening rush hours on weekdays from 2009 to 2014 of the 142 sections in the 6 national highways in Gyeonggi-do, Korea were used. From the results of the analysis, it was found that the percentage of the number of sections with the improved traffic flows increased greatly in 2012 compared to 2011. The findings of the study indicate the effect of the real-time traffic information on improving traffic flows.

Telematics is expected to be one of the fastest growing businesses in information technology area. It may create a new emerging market in industry related to automotive, telecommunications, and information services. Especially vehicle navigation service is considered as a killer application among telematics service applications. The current vehicle navigation service typically recommends a single path that is based on the traveling time or distance from the origin to the destination. The system provides two options for users to choose either via highway or via any road. Since the traffics and road conditions of big cities are very complicated and dynamic, the demand of multi-path guidance system is increasing in telematics market. The multi-path guidance system should allow drivers to choose a path based on their individual preferences such as traveling time, distance, or route familiarity. Using the Lawler's algorithm, it is possible to find multiple paths; however, due to the lengthy computational time, it is not suitable for the real-time services. This study suggests a computationally feasible and efficient heuristic multiple paths finding algorithm that is reliable for the real-time vehicle navigation services.

The objective of this paper is to develop the optimal path algorithm for dynamic route guidance system in advanced traveler information system (ATIS). The travel time is forecasted in each path between network nodes. Floyd-Warshall algorithm is used to find the optimal route based on this forecasted travel time in dynamic traffic network. This algorithm is modified to apply the real traffic network that has left-turn restriction, U-turn, and P-turn. A big value is assigned to one of arcs in turn restriction and a virtual node is used to consider U-turn and P-turn for Floyd-Warshall algorithm.

Recent environmental concerns have made interest in environment-friendly transportation means such as walking, biking, and public transportation. However, since it is difficult to move long distance by walking or biking, their scope of application is rather limited. On the other hand, public transportation can solve traffic congestion, a recent social issue, though its usability may depend on its time schedule. Currently available information services on public transportation in the Web do not reflect well such traits of the public transportation; thus, in some cases, they may provide wrong information to end users. To solve such problems and provide information based on timetable of public transportations, this paper proposes a STP(Space Time Point) data model. Unlike existing space-time data models, this model recognizes the bottommost element of an object as a point and structures these points in hierarchical way to define an object. In particular, It can make it possible to implement a variety of dynamic spatial objects changing object information according to time. An objective of this study is to design a STP model for bus and subway based on timetables of public transportation in Daejeon area and builds a system to provide path navigation. With the designed navigation function, a path from the Daejeon National Cemetery to Hannam University was searched by time slot. The result showed that the system provided different paths by time, as the system guided different paths when bus operation was limited in midnight. As existing data model could not provide such results, it is confirmed that the system can provide path navigation based on real-time traffic information. It is expected that based on such functionality, it is possible to provide additional functionalities by applying diverse data models such as real-time transport information or traffic history information.

차량 항법 시스템(Car Navigation System)은 요즘 많은 발전을 거듭하여 차량 이용시 사용자가 가고자하는 목적지까지의 길을 쉽게 안내하고 있다. 이런 기술의 발전은 단순한 정적인 길 안내(Static Route Guidance) 뿐만 아니라. 동적인 길 안내(Dynamic Route Guidance)를 함으로써 자동차 운전자가 쉽고 빠른 길을 안내 받을 수 있게 되었다. 그러나 이러한 교통정보는 매우 변화가 심하므로 최초로 경로를 전송 받은 후 그 경로상에 교통정보가 변화하였다면, 이미 전송 받은 경로는 실시간으로 적극적으로 대응할 수 없고 실제 막히는 길로 안내할 수 있다. 목적지까지의 거리가 먼 경우 이런 현상이 더욱 심하게 나타날 수 있다. 이런 경우 운전자는 실제로는 막히는 길로 안내 받을 수 밖에 없다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해 교통정보를 수집하는 기존의 시스템에 Ad Hoc 네트워킹이 가능한 시스템을 탑재한 교통정보 수집 차량(Probe Car)을 이용한다. 정보 수집 차량이 극심한 정체를 발견하면 근처를 지나는 경로를 가진 차량에게 이를 전달하여 새로운 경로를 다운받을 수 있도록 한다. 이런 방법은 Ad Hoc Relaying System〔l〕을 이용하여 가능하며, 센터에 수집되고 가공되는 시간을 최대한 줄일 수 있으며, 센터의 통신 오버헤드를 최소화할 수 있다. 또한 기지국에 호가 집중되어 call blocking이 발생함 경우에 이를 해결할 수 있다.

Today, the location based service(LBS) is globally developing with the advance of smart phones and IOT devices. The main purpose of this research is to provide users with the most efficient route information, analyzing big data of people with a variety of routes. This system will enable users to have a similar feeling of getting a direct guidance from a person who has often used the route. It is possible because the system server analyzes the route information of people in real time, after composing the distributed processing system on the basis of map information. In the future, the system will be able to amazingly develop with the association of various LBS services, providing users with more precise and safer route information.

This study developed and evaluated a safe route guidance service for electric personal assistive mobility device used mainly by the mobility impaired people to improve their mobility. Thirteen underlying factors affecting the mobility of electric personal assistive mobility device have been derived through a survey with the mobility impaired people and employees in related organizations in Busan Metropolitan City. After assigning safety scores to individual factors and identifying the relevant factors along routes of interest with an object detection AI model, the safe route for electric personal assistive mobility device was provided through an optimal path-finding algorithm. As a result of comparing the general route of T-map and the recommended route of this study for the identical routes, the latter had relatively fewer obstacles and the gentler slope than the former, implicating that the recommended route is safer than the general one. As future works, it is necessary to enhance the function of a route guidance service based on the real-time location of users and to conduct spot investigations to evaluate and verify its social acceptability.

Ubiquitous-Transportation sensor network is able to realize a vehicle ad-hoc network. Since there are some problems in an existing ITS system, the new technology and traffic information strategies are requirements in this advanced system, u-TSN. The purposes of this paper is to introduce the components on u-TSN system, establish new traffic strategies for this system, and then evaluate these strategies by making a comparative study of ITS and using micro traffic simulator, AIMSUN. The strategy evaluated by AIMSUN is position-based multicast strategy which provides traffic information to vehicles using V2I (vehicle to Infrastructure) communication. This paper focuses on the providing real-time route guidance information when congestion is occurred by the incidents. This study estimates total travel time on each route by API modules. Result from simulation experiments suggests that position-based multicast strategy can achieve more optimal network performance and increased driver satisfaction since the total accumulated travel times of both the major road and the total system on position-based multicast strategy are less than those on VMS.

In case of fire in a structure, it is difficult to suppress fire because it can not accurately grasp the location of fire in case of fire. In this paper, we propose a system algorithm that can guide the optimal evacuation route in case of deep learning-based (RNN) structure disaster. The present invention provides a service to transmit data detected by sensors to a server in real time by using installed sensor, to transmit and analyze information such as temperature, heat, smoke, toxic gas around the sensor, to identify the safest moving path within a set threshold, to transmit information to LED guide lights and direction indicators in a structure in real time to avoid risk factors. This is because the information of temperature, heat, smoke, and toxic gas in each area of the structure can be grasped, and it is considered that the optimal evacuation route can be guided in case of structure disaster.
