Design of an exchange information component of O/D matrix for mass transportation systems based on DATEX II approach

Abstract

Nowadays, the mobility is a growing problem that worries the governments in Latin American countries. In fact, to improve the mobility the transportation planning process and the ITS technologies are key areas, which should work together to give solutions to solve or mitigate the problem. One of the most used tools in transportation planning to face this problem is the origin/destination (O/D) matrix, which is used to estimate the moving of users and future demand on transportation systems. Nevertheless, the current technologies for the generation of traffic data information, the matrix O/D in this case, create a new problem for handle the heterogeneous data especially for the traffic centers, which use these data for traffic management. The novelty of this paper is focused on the design of an exchange information component, which send the O/D matrix information to the traffic centers based on DATEX II approach.
