Traffic Routes for Emergency Services

Abstract

One of the key functions related to traffic optimization and control in Insigma is computing routes for emergency services. In Poland, due to its special status, a privileged car behaves in a substantially different way than a plain car. As a result, "privileged" routes should also considerably differ. In the paper, we propose a solution that combines road data and a behavior model, able to determine such routes. A number of presented case studies confirms our solution works and gives reasonable results -- routes that are faster and more flexible than routes for unprivileged vehicles.
