Abstract

With increasing ownership of smartphones and membership of various social network services (SNS), new types of Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) has become available to travelers. The smartphone enables mobile users to input and access real-time information while SNSs provide voluntarily collected personal information among networks of friends. Internet of Things (IoT) philosophy can be applied for connecting smartphone users for various transportation applications. This paper develops Facebook-based carpooling, and proposes Twitter-based traffic monitoring and Flickr-based incident reporting applications. The SNS services provide application programming interfaces (APIs) that allow external users to access their databases. The APIs provide a basis for the development of transportation applications for each service. Facebook can allow a group of friends to share a ride based on their attributes which are available in their personal information sections. Twitter can be used for sharing traffic conditions on the roads. Flickr can be customized as a geo-tagged collision reporting tool with real-time close-up photos of traffic collisions. It is found that available APIs are useful for implementing SNS-based transportation applications. It is also found that search times for carpooling partners vary with multiple factors: time-of-day, number of potential partners, and desired tolerance levels for location and time.
基于社交网络服务api的交通应用可行性分析
随着智能手机的拥有率和各种社交网络服务(SNS)会员的增加,旅行者可以使用新型的高级旅行者信息系统(ATIS)。智能手机可以让移动用户输入和访问实时信息,而社交网络则提供朋友之间自愿收集的个人信息。物联网(IoT)理念可以应用于连接智能手机用户的各种交通应用。本文开发了基于facebook的拼车,提出了基于twitter的交通监控和基于flickr的事件报告应用。SNS服务提供允许外部用户访问其数据库的应用程序编程接口(api)。api为每个服务的运输应用程序的开发提供了基础。Facebook可以让一群朋友根据他们的属性来拼车,这些属性可以在他们的个人信息部分找到。Twitter可以用来分享道路上的交通状况。Flickr可以定制为一个地理标记的碰撞报告工具,提供交通碰撞的实时特写照片。研究发现,可用的api对于实现基于sns的传输应用程序非常有用。研究还发现,拼车伴侣的搜索时间因多种因素而异:一天中的时间、潜在伴侣的数量、对地点和时间的期望容忍度。
