Abstract:Travel time data is a key input to Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) applications. Advancement in vehicle ; tracking and identification technologies and proliferation of location-aware and connected devices has made network-wide travel time data available to transportation management agencies. The trend started with data collection on ; freeways has been quickly extended to arterials. Although freeway travel time data has been validated extensively in ; recent years, the quality of arterial travel time data is not well known. This project presents a comprehensive validation ; scheme for arterial travel time data based on GPS probe and Bluetooth generated data as two independent sources. ; Since travel time on arterials is subject to a higher degree of variation compared to freeways mainly due to presence of ; signals, a new validation methodology based on coefficient of variation was introduced. Moreover, a Context ; Dependent (CD) based travel time fusion framework was developed to improve the reliability of travel time ; information by fusing data from multiple sources. The entire 2012 data on a busy arterial corridor consisting of six ; segments in Maryland was used to demonstrate the proposed comparison and augmentation model.
