Decision Support System Design for Urban Public Transit Safety Based on Geography Information System
Publication: International Conference on Transportation Engineering 2007
Abstract
With the rapid development of mobile mechanization in China, urban transportation problems such as urban traffic safety expand day by day. To solve this problem, many ways, such as public transit priority which is considered as one of the most important approaches to achieve urban sustainable transportation development, have been used in different cities. Since public traffic has the great carrying ability, its safety arouses people's attentions easily. An efficient, flexible and Real-time Decision Support System (DSS) is very important to improve the management of urban public transit and emergency disposal. In this paper DSS are designed for urban public transit safety based on Geography Information System (GIS) in view of prevention, management and decision support scheme establishment for public transit safety. This system that will provide powerful support to the public transit safety has the abilities of spatial information release and data mining. Real-time dynamic operations and visual expression. A powerful information support will be given by it for the public transit safety.
