SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COLLECTING TRAFFIC INFORMATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17683837 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR COLLECTING TRAFFIC INFORMATION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system for collecting traffic information using a vehicle equipped with sensors and a GPS receiver. The system includes a server that maps the collected data to generate map matching information, which is then used as traffic information.
- The system includes a vehicle with sensors and a GPS receiver.
- The vehicle collects dead reckoning (DR) information and GPS information.
- A server maps the DR and GPS information to generate map matching information.
- The map matching information is collected as traffic information.
- The system requires the vehicle to have the latest version of a software platform.
- All DR and GPS information must be received for the traffic information to be collected.
Potential Applications
- Traffic management and planning
- Real-time navigation systems
- Intelligent transportation systems
Problems Solved
- Accurate collection of traffic information
- Integration of DR and GPS data for improved accuracy
- Efficient mapping of collected data to generate useful traffic information
Benefits
- Improved accuracy in traffic information
- Real-time updates for traffic management and navigation systems
- Enhanced efficiency in traffic planning and optimization
Original Abstract Submitted
A system for collecting traffic information includes a vehicle having at least one sensor for collecting dead reckoning (DR) information, and a global positioning system (GPS) receiver configured to receive GPS information, and a server that maps the DR information and the GPS information to a server map to generate first map matching information, and collects the first map matching information as the traffic information when it is determined that a version of a software platform of the vehicle is a latest version and all the DR information and the GPS information are received.
