Method for producing traffic information utilizing BIS and mobile access point

Bus Management System (BMS) is designed to trace the public buses in operation using GPS so as to control the headway of public buses for efficient management of the road. This system may be used as Bus Information System (BIS) which provides passenger service information such as displaying the arrival time and so on. As BMS functions to manage the location of the buses on a real-time basis, travel time and running speed of each specific route could be easily identified. Likewise, intelligent transportation system (ITS) for general vehicles is aimed at efficient operation of roads and traffic information provision through detectors installed on the roads. The objective of this study is to research methods to utilize traffic information collected through BIS into ITS. Using BIS would possibly reduce the number of ITS detectors as well as have the benefit of providing space information instead of point information. Test results confirmed that the section speed produced through the study method is very similar to the section speed provided by existing ITS.
