The planning of solution to Istanbul's transportation problem with the coordination of transportation subsystems by the aid of GPS

Abstract

The Istanbul Transportation Information System has been established for the purpose of processing and storing data in a computer environment to arrange, in its most general sense, management service, coordination and planning activities related to transportation. The information system for this objective is one that is composed of a series of hardware and software components including data storage, data processing, data analysis and representation functions. A database called the transportation information system for evaluating the graphical and non-graphical data for the city of Istanbul has been formed. Moreover, some analyses are performed toward design and optimization based on a single intersection. Up-to-date data are accessed with an appropriate interrogation easily and efficiently.
