System for road information collection

Abstract

A road information collection system. The system collects sensor data from terminal devices in one or more mobile vehicles. After parsing the sensor data, it obtains time information, image data, and location information. After image processing, it obtains road information along the movement path of the mobile vehicle over a period of time. Then, by querying parking space and road databases, it forms a description of parking spaces and roads within a region. The description can cover information on roads, parking spaces, and vehicles parked in those spaces, as well as any missing road information. When there is missing road information, the road information collection system connects to a dispatch system, automatically and directly dispatching personnel or vehicles to supplement the collected sensor data based on the missing road information.

Claims

1. A road information collection system, comprising: A road information management server includes a processing unit, a network unit, and a data processing module interconnected with each other. The road information management server connects to one or more terminal devices through the network unit and collects road information in cooperation with the one or more terminal devices. The steps include: collecting sensing data from the one or more terminal devices; parsing the sensing data to obtain time information, image data, and location information; processing the image data to obtain road information along the movement paths of each terminal device over a period of time; and querying a parking space and road database to compile regional road information describing one or more parking spaces and one or more roads in a region.

2. The road information collection system as described in claim 1, wherein a computer system implements a road information management server, which, after obtaining descriptions of one or more parking spaces and one or more roads in the area, identifies one or more vehicles and license plates parked in the one or more parking spaces.

3. The road information collection system as described in claim 2, wherein the road information management server is connected to a dispatch system, which dispatches a person or a mobile vehicle to a corresponding dispatch location to collect sensing data based on missing road information in the area.

4. The road information collection system as described in claim 3, wherein, In this dispatch system, based on a dispatch request received from the computer system, missing road information in the area is obtained, and the dispatched person or vehicle is determined by querying a dispatch database.

5. The road information collection system as described in claim 4, wherein the dispatch system is implemented by a security system, the dispatched person is a security personnel dispatched by the security system to patrol outside, and the mobile vehicle is a security vehicle dispatched by the security system to patrol outside.

6. The road information collection system according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein an artificial intelligence model with computer vision recognition capability is used to process the image data to identify the one or more parking spaces and the one or more roads in the image data, to form the road information, and to identify the road conditions and / or road quality of the one or more roads based on the image data.

7. A road information collection system, comprising: Multiple edge computing terminal devices are respectively installed in multiple mobile vehicles. Each terminal device includes a processor, a memory, a communication unit, and a sensor interface that are interconnected. These multiple terminal devices are interconnected via their respective communication units and collaborate using Internet of Things (IoT) technology to perform road information collection, including the following steps: collecting sensor data from the multiple terminal devices; parsing the sensor data to obtain time information, image data, and location information; processing the image data to obtain road information along the individual movement paths of the multiple terminal devices over a period of time; and querying a parking space and road database to aggregate regional road information describing one or more parking spaces and one or more roads within a region.

8. The road information collection system as described in claim 7, wherein the plurality of terminal devices form a mesh network with each other through a communication protocol, enabling the plurality of terminal devices to communicate with each other and transmit the road information, thereby forming regional road information covering the area.

9. The road information collection system as described in claim 8, wherein each of the plurality of terminal devices is provided with a plurality of sensors, and each terminal device is connected through the sensor interface, wherein one of the sensors is an image sensor, used to acquire the image data of the one or more roads traveled by the terminal device during the period of time, and record the corresponding time information and location information.

10. The road information collection system as claimed in claim 9, wherein any of the plurality of terminal devices is further provided with at least one type of environmental sensor for generating one or more sensing data of air quality, temperature, humidity, light and sound on the road.
