Development of a Technology for Monitoring Passenger Traffic in the Context of Intelligent Transport Systems

Abstract

The article shows the results of the analysis of the development of municipal passenger transport. The regulations on the existence and the need to overcome the contradictions between the desired and existing systems for the provision of transport services to the population are formed on the basis of this analysis. The expediency of creating a decision support system for the subjects of the passenger transportation market is shown. It was based on the creation of a single information space for traffic participants in transport systems. A new method for assessing the passenger’s choice of travel path based on the MNL (multinomial model) has been developed. The developed method makes it possible to obtain and predict the form of the attractiveness function of urban routes in any city for its further use in models for the formation of rational route networks. A new intelligent technology for monitoring passenger traffic has been proposed. The practical significance of the results obtained lies in the original approach to monitoring passenger traffic, proposed on the basis of the use of information technologies and distributed multidimensional databases. The result of the application of appropriate information and communication technologies for monitoring the movement of passenger transport is useful for the development of transport infrastructure in large cities. This will make it possible to profit from the rational distribution of resources for the maintenance of the route network of cities and regions.
