Description

Transportation routing has been enhanced by the
research and development in both Geographic
Information System (GIS) and network analysis. This
book furthers the advancement by tackling
transportation routing for an extensive area with
real-time events. An open framework was introduced
by: 1) leveraging microscopic transportation
simulation for travel time estimation and prediction;
2) incorporating road weather information as an
example of real-time event; 3) identifying the
shortest-path in a space-time network; 4) enabling
Grid computing in both traffic simulation over large
areas and routing for massive concurrent user
requests; and 5) integrating web-based GIServices
based upon interoperability approaches.
This book is for people who are interested in
research and developments of cyber-infrastructure
applications, transportation networks and topology
analyses, distributed geospatial information
processing, and geospatial interoperability.
