Detection of unnecessary traversing of traffic flows using historical vehicle itineraries

Our previous researches have shown that the throughput capacity of an individual traversing and transport network in general can be significantly increased by proper routing of traffic flows at in-grade traversing by means of minimization of unnecessary, thus avoidable, traversing in traffic flows. This can substantially increase the average speed, reduce the waiting times at traversing and reduce the adverse impact of the traffic on the environment and traffic safety. In this paper a method is shown that utilizes recorded vehicle itineraries gathered from corporate fleet management and tracking systems. Vehicle locations obtained by GNSS are transformed into paths and introduced to spatiotemporal GIS database and processed through methods of stochastic analysis in order to detect and indicate points and intensities of unnecessary traversing of traffic flows. By analyzing the relations between the routes, the causes of unnecessary traversing may be determined and adequate measures to eliminate such a situation can be undertaken.
