AUTOMATIC DESIGN OF PERSPECTIVES OF HIGHWAY JUNCTIONS

TRACE AUTOMATIQUE DE PERSPECTIVES DE NOEUDS ROUTIERS

The computer program described in this article facilitates the automatic design, in perspective, of junctions, using numerical data. These perspective drawings are shown on a digital tracer or on a graphic screen. They allow the project engineer to judge the visibility, the optical properties of the junction, the arrangement of traffic signals and carriageway markings, thus reducing the number of data needed. An example of application of the method is given. /TRRL/
