A GIS based information integration framework for dynamic vehicle routing and scheduling

Abstract

Abstrad -This paper describes a framework for integrating information for dynamic vehicle routing and scheduling using GIS and ITS. A description of the types of information required for its application in freight transportation is presented. The integration framework introduced here aims to accommodate both geographic features and traffic information within one seamlessly articulated environment. The systems structure as well as imple-'mentation with embedded GIS is described. A local courier service operation is used as a case study to demonstrate the potential of such a system.

A Framework to Monitor Vehicle Visualized and Intuitively Based on X3D

“…Position interpolation is Advanced Materials Research Vols. 433-440 based on time interpolation, and it is some kind of space-time cube (as Fig 2 ): XYZ axis represents a space cube, and line between two points illustrates time axis, suppose vehicle arrive at point (2,5,4) when time is 0.2s, and it arrives at point (6,8,7) when time is 0.4s, then to draw a line between the two points, the time of central point will be 0.3s, and the coordinate will be (4, 6.5, 5.5).…”
