Challenge / Goal
The aim of the use case was to gain an overview of how traffic flows in the city of Freiburg in order to better manage demand in the future and offer public transport/car sharing/bicycle lanes/charging stations where they are needed.
Solution
The core of the implementation was the visualization of live traffic data as a web application for the explorative analysis of traffic flows in the city. This was implemented as a prototype in the final phase of the project. The focus was on the comprehensive live display of car and bicycle traffic flows as well as the display of corresponding data from camera images. In addition to the live display, the historical display of the data is also possible, which allows the mapping of individual points in time and intervals. In this way, hypotheses can be formed about progression and forecasts, which in turn serves as a basis for a better understanding and more efficient, people-friendly and environmentally friendly traffic planning and management. The focus on bicycle traffic is particularly new here.
In addition, a long-term operating concept was developed for the solution. This includes (cloud) infrastructure requirements as well as personnel requirements that are necessary for independent operation of the solution in a production environment.
