Little automated use is made of the gigabytes of real-time traffic data today; often, by the time it is received, it is no longer representative of the actual traffic

► Issue: “real-time” is too late

IBM’s TPT provides a layer of intelligence by using sensor data in sophisticated algorithms that create relevant insights from the raw data

► IBM Innovation: forecast the future

TPT accurately forecasts future

traffic conditions, including incidents

volu

me

blue = forecast black = actual red = incident

time

Current Focus Traffic Operations: Variable Message Sign setting; traffic signal timing, ramp metering

Future Use Traffic Planning; Dynamic Road Pricing; congestion based tariff setting; route planning & advice

Extension: Data Expansion (2008 IME) develop algorithm to fill in gaps of real-time sensor data, resulting in a complete picture of future traffic state, network-wide

Typical Scenario:

• A family travels from Birmensdorf (ZH) to the Zoo.

Several possibilities with different • Modes • Connections • Transfers and uncertainties! • Delays • Lack of parking • Traffic jams • …

Use Case 1 Personal Journey Planning

•  Provides API to external applications to plan a journey in a multi-modal network and track trip progress

•  Re-plan when User is off-track; Events invalidate plan; Events create better opportunities

Use Case 2 Operator facing optimization

•  Derive and communicate to operator performance measures based on how the system works for a user

-  Account for uncertainties -  Performance Metrics: journey times, wait times, missed connections, walk access distances

•  Make recommendations on schedule refinements
