The module is designed to automate the management of traffic flows, including controlling the priority of certain types of vehicles through traffic light control, interacting with one or more traffic management systems within an urban agglomeration/region, as well as the ability to remotely control road controllers bypassing the traffic management system at the instrumental level.
Coordinated traffic management, including using data on traffic flow parameters.
Optimizing traffic conditions on urban agglomeration roads to increase their capacity.
Improving the efficiency of transport and transport infrastructure in the urban agglomeration.
Supporting multi-vendor road controllers and instrumental traffic management systems.
Controlling and managing traffic on the road network. Analysing traffic congestion and pre-congestion situations.
Optimising phase-by-phase departures and traffic light cycles at regulated intersections.
Automated dispatching control of road controllers:
Direct control of traffic at the intersection.
Control by changing phase distribution.
Coordinated traffic control at a group of intersections («Green Wave»). Direct control of traffic at the intersection.
Controlling the operating modes of traffic lights:
«Green Wave» mode.
«Flashing yellow» mode.
«All-way red» mode.
Coordinated traffic management.
Time coordination.
Adaptive coordinated management.
Supporting multi-vendor traffic management systems
Implementing the concept of cross-domain integration with several instrumental traffic management systems within an urban agglomeration.
The ability to directly control road controllers
Providing the ability to work in the mode of direct control of road controllers.
Regional distribution of roles
Distribution of roles and access rights between the region and municipalities within the urban agglomeration.
User-friendly management tools
Interactive creation of «green waves», monitoring of control sections.
Incident and closure management
End-to-end incident management and visualization of temporary traffic management schemes and closures related to road activities.
Planning and forecasting tools
Integration with external calculation tools.
Advantages of the module
Quick priority collection
Quick collection of «green waves» along the road network graph to guarantee priority for special categories of transport.
1
Flexible management
The ability to work in the mode of a multi-vendor traffic management system, with the possibility of interacting both with instrumental subsystems for traffic management and in the mode of taking over control with access to the road controller.
2
Working in conjunction with the public transport management module
Building programs for the operation of traffic light objects based on information collected from the subsystem for monitoring traffic flow parameters, and not just based on data from tactical detection of the traffic management system (on lane occupancy).
3
Modularity and integration
The traffic management module has interfaces with adjacent modules of the Unified Transport Management System Transflow and is aware of scheduled road works, including road closures, incidents on the road network, public transport movement, and weather conditions. Based on this information, the traffic management module operator can create optimal scenarios for operating the traffic control system to manage road traffic.
4
Wide range of equipment
The Transflow traffic management system is implemented in the concept of unifying interaction with various equipment suppliers, which allows it to work with a heterogeneous set of traffic management system equipment using developed interface drivers.
5
Scalability
The traffic management module implements the concept of a regional traffic management system, allowing it to divide control zones between different municipalities and regional centers, ensuring operation in both heavily loaded agglomerations and regional roads of the Russian Federation subjects in a single interface with flexibly divided geo-role management models.
