Laser Scanning Systems in Highway and Safety Assessment by Biswajeet Pradhan,Maher Ibrahim Sameen Pdf

This book aims to promote the core understanding of a proper modelling of road traffic accidents by deep learning methods using traffic information and road geometry delineated from laser scanning data. The first two chapters of the book introduce the reader to laser scanning technology with creative explanation and graphical illustrations, review and recent methods of extracting geometric road parameters. The next three chapters present different machine learning and statistical techniques applied to extract road geometry information from laser scanning data. Chapters 6 and 7 present methods for modelling roadside features and automatic road geometry identification in vector data. After that, this book goes on reviewing methods used for road traffic accident modelling including accident frequency and injury severity of the traffic accident (Chapter 8). Then, the next chapter explores the details of neural networks and their performance in predicting the traffic accidents along with a comparison with common data mining models. Chapter 10 presents a novel hybrid model combining extreme gradient boosting and deep neural networks for predicting injury severity of road traffic accidents. This chapter is followed by deep learning applications in modelling accident data using feed-forward, convolutional, recurrent neural network models (Chapter 11). The final chapter (Chapter 12) presents a procedure for modelling traffic accident with little data based on the concept of transfer learning. This book aims to help graduate students, professionals, decision makers, and road planners in developing better traffic accident prediction models using advanced neural networks.

LiDAR-Based Mobile Mapping System for Lane Width Estimation in Work Zones by Ayman Habib,Yun-Jou Lin,Radhika Ravi,Tamer Shamseldin,Magdy Elbahnasawy Pdf

Lane width evaluation is one of the crucial aspects in road safety inspection. Moreover, lane width is one of the most important attributes of a road digital map for many applications, such as driver assistance systems and risk assessment. Using mobile mapping systems (MMSs) equipped with laser scanners is a safe and cost-effective method for rapidly collecting detailed information about various characteristics along any transportation corridor. This report presents an approach to derive lane width estimates using point clouds acquired from a calibrated mobile mapping system. To derive point clouds with high positional accuracy, estimation of the mounting parameters relating the different laser scanners to the onboard GNSS/INS unit is the foremost and necessary step. This report proposes a multi-unit LiDAR system calibration procedure where the mounting parameters can be estimated through minimizing the normal distance between conjugate planar/linear features in overlapping point clouds derived from different drive-runs. After generating the LiDAR point cloud using the estimated mounting parameters, the road surface can be extracted with the assistance of navigation data, which in turn is used to identify lane markings. Lane markings have a high retro-reflective property that will be exhibited as high-intensity points when scanned by a laser scanner. This property can be used to distinguish lane markings from the extracted road surface in the LiDAR point cloud. Then, non-lane marking points among the extracted high-intensity points are identified and removed. Next, the lane marking centerline is derived for lane width estimation.

Transport Planning and Traffic Safety by Geetam Tiwari,Dinesh Mohan Pdf

In recognition of the importance of road safety as a major health issue, the World Health Organization has declared 2011-2021 the Decade of Safety Action. Several countries in Europe, North America, and Asia have been successful in reducing fatalities and injuries due to road traffic crashes. However, many low-income countries continue to experience high rates of traffic fatalities and injuries. Transport Planning and Traffic Safety: Making Cities, Roads, and Vehicles Safer offers a source book for road safety training courses as well as an introductory textbook for graduate-level courses on road safety taught in engineering institutes. It brings together the international experiences and lessons learned from countries which have been successful in reducing traffic crashes and their applicability in low-income countries. The content is based on lectures delivered during an international course on transportation planning and traffic safety, sponsored annually by the Transportation Research and Injury Prevention Programme (TRIPP) at the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. The book is interdisciplinary and aimed at professionals—traffic and road engineers, vehicle designers, law enforcers, and transport planners. The authors examine trends in performance of OECD countries and highlight the public health and systems approach of traffic safety with the vulnerable road user in focus. Topics include land use (transportation planning, mobility, and safety), safety education and legislation, accident analysis, road safety research, human tolerance to injury, vehicle design, safety in construction zones, safety in urban areas, traffic calming, public transportation, safety laws and policies, and pre-hospital care of the injured.
