Navigating for new traffic solutions: The use of probe data from consumer GPS navigation devices for the analysis of controlled intersections

Probe data from consumer GPS navigation devices provides a network-wide and cost-efficient data source for measuring vehicle movements. The measurement of traffic volume, route choice and delay on intersections is needed for efficient intersection control. Data collection from road-side sensors can provide this information but is expensive and...

Probe data from consumer GPS navigation devices for the analysis of controlled intersections

Probe data from consumer GPS navigation devices provides a network-wide and costefficient data source for measuring vehicle movements, whereas experimental studies have been confined to small datasets. Data collection from road-side sensors can provide similar information but is expensive and requires high maintenance expenditures. This paper...
