Abstract
- Traffic congestion has always been a serious problem for people in the big cities around the world. It causes unpleasant and unpredictable delay. Knowing the traffic condition in advance helps the drivers plan their trips wisely. Moreover, having real-time traffic information at hand, the drivers can adjust their route selections on-the-fly. This helps the drivers avoid entering the congested areas. Obviously, the traffic information plays an important role in alleviating the traffic problem. Currently, there are many methods used for collecting and distributing the traffic information. This article provides an in-depth review of these methods. In addition, the future traffic information systems and the challenges ahead will also be discussed.
