An incident resolution judgment system and method are provided which reduce processing load on a traffic information center included in an incident detection system. When an incident occurs, the traffic information center generates an incident resolution judgment condition, which is used by each vehicle to judge whether the incident is resolved, and transmits the generated incident resolution judgment condition to each vehicle. Each vehicle judges in accordance with its travel history information and the received incident resolution judgment condition whether the incident is resolved. When the incident is judged to be resolved, each vehicle notifies the traffic information center that the incident is resolved. In accordance with incident resolution detection results produced by a plurality of vehicles, the traffic information center forms a final judgment to indicate that the incident is actually resolved and notifies each vehicle of incident resolution.

A navigation device includes: a position detecting unit; a remaining energy level detecting unit; a storage unit that stores map information including position information of a charging point of a drive energy; an energy consumption amount calculation unit that calculates a consumption amount of the drive energy when a vehicle travels along any link included based upon the map information; a route calculation unit that calculates a route from a current position to a destination point; and a route guidance unit. The route calculation unit calculates a recommended route with a minimum attainment cost among routes in which the remaining level does not fall below a predetermined threshold level based upon the map information, the remaining level on departure of the vehicle detected by the remaining energy level detecting unit, and the consumption amount calculated by the energy consumption amount calculation unit.
摘要:
A traffic situation is predicted based on the correlation in the traffic situation between road sections. A base vector generation unit generates the base vectors constituting a feature space representing the correlation between a plurality of links by making a principal component analysis for the necessary time in the past recorded in a necessary time database. A projection point trajectory generation unit records a projection point trajectory of projecting the necessary time in the past recorded in the necessary time database to the feature space in a projection point database. A feature space projection unit projects the necessary time at present to the feature space, and a neighboring projection point retrieval unit retrieves a past projection point in the neighborhood of the concerned projection point from the projection point database, and a projection point trajectory trace unit traces the trajectory of past projection points starting from the retrieved neighboring projection point for a prediction target time width, and an inverse projection unit inversely projects the end point of the concerned trajectory to calculate the predicted value of the necessary time.

When receiving a traffic information providing request, a traffic information providing apparatus analyzes which area's traffic information is requested based on the received request information. Traffic information of road links located in the requested area is read from the traffic information, and it is determined whether the road links' traffic information is similar or not. Similar links configure a link group, and traffic information corresponding to the link group is created. Traffic information of the configured link group is delivered to an in-vehicle information apparatus.

Because a route selection model for traffic demand prediction of selecting a route from among travel routes in probe data cannot include other routes than the travel route in the probe data, it is not possible to predict a traffic volume on the route that has not been traveled. A traffic-volume prediction device includes a simple-network creation device that makes a simple network connecting principal intersections extracted from travelling loci in the collected probe data, a model creation device that determines a utility between the principal intersections based on the data of the travelling loci and calculates a selection probability for each principal intersection based on the utility, and a traffic-volume assignment device that distributes a traffic volume to the routes between the principal intersections according to the selection probability and uses the traffic volume for each route candidate to be a traffic demand prediction object.
