Due to the closed nature of highways, it is generally difficult to deal with them through conventional diversion methods.

[0008] In some exemplary embodiments, determining the intervention method includes: Identify relevant vehicles in the same lane or adjacent lanes, generate reminder information to prompt the vehicle to speed up and increase the driving distance, or generate reminder information to prompt relevant vehicles to change lanes, and output reminder information through vehicle driving reminder signs or voice broadcast systems in the direction of the vehicle and the nearest reminder sign or voice broadcast system according to the location information of the road section; Alternatively, based on the position information of the road section to be intervened, determine whether there is a duty vehicle in the opposite lane, and the distance from the road section to be intervened is less than the eighth threshold, and send a prompt message to the duty vehicle to prompt the relevant vehicles to change lanes, change the distance between vehicles or speed up, so that the duty vehicle intervenes in the relevant vehicles.
[0009] In some exemplary embodiments, the step of identifying the cause of congestion based on collecting images of the road section to be intervened includes: Determine that the vehicle speeds in all lanes of the road section to be intervened are lower than a ninth set threshold, determine that an accident has occurred or that congestion has been caused by lane narrowing; and when it is determined that an accident has occurred, identify the cause of the accident.
[0010] In some exemplary embodiments, determining the intervention method includes: Determine whether there is an on-duty vehicle in the opposite lane or the same-direction lane, and determine the time it takes for the on-duty vehicle to arrive at the road section to be intervened; Obtain the location information of the organization in the road section to be intervened, and determine the time it takes for the organization to arrive at the road section to be intervened; Based on the cause of congestion and the time it takes for on-duty vehicles and agencies to arrive at the section to be intervened, it is determined whether the agency or on-duty vehicle will intervene, and information on the cause of the accident, intervention method, and route will be sent to the agency or on-duty vehicle to intervene in the congestion on the section to be intervened.

[0023] This specification may use the phrases "in one embodiment," "in another embodiment," "in yet another embodiment," or "in other embodiments," all of which may refer to one or more of the same or different embodiments according to the present application.
[0024] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the process of the highway emergency coordination and control method of the embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the highway emergency event coordination and control method of the embodiment of the present application includes the following processing steps: Step 101 , in response to images of lanes collected from different sections of a highway, the images are recognized to at least obtain driving condition information of the lanes.
[0025] In the embodiment of the present application, a camera is installed on a height limit pole or a traffic light frame to collect images of vehicle driving conditions on a set road section. After collecting images of vehicle driving conditions, the collected images are identified to obtain information on vehicle driving conditions in different lanes on the road section.
[0026] In an embodiment of the present application, as an implementation method, feature points in an image are acquired, and corresponding vehicle information is determined based on the feature points; the relative position relationship between vehicles at different time points and the driving speed of the vehicles are determined based on the vehicle information; and the driving condition information of different lanes is determined based on the relative position relationship between vehicles, the change in the relative position relationship and the speed. In an embodiment of the present application, the information of the vehicle can be determined based on the shape of the vehicle, the difference between the lane color and the color of the vehicle, or based on the license plate image of the vehicle, and the relative position relationship between vehicles at different acquisition times, the change in the relative position relationship and the speed are determined based on the position change information of the vehicle and the time taken for the position change. In an embodiment of the present application, the driving information of the vehicle can also be determined by identifying the license plate number of the vehicle, and the license plate can be associated with the vehicle to more accurately determine the driving condition of the vehicle.
[0027] Step 102, based on the driving conditions, determine that the vehicle speed in the lane is lower than a first threshold, or the vehicle density exceeds a second threshold, or the distance between vehicles in multiple lanes is less than a third threshold; determine that traffic intervention is required on the corresponding section of the highway.
[0028] In the embodiment of the present application, the speed of the vehicle is determined based on the maximum speed limit of the expressway, and the first threshold value may be 80 km / hour, 70 km / hour, or 60 km / hour, etc. The vehicle density may be determined based on the number of vehicles in the captured image. For example, if a highway with a maximum speed limit of 120 km / hour is taken as an example, if there are 100 vehicles in the normal viewing range, when the number of vehicles in the viewing range reaches 300 or more, it is considered that congestion has occurred or may cause congestion. The second threshold value is set according to the viewing range of the camera, the number of lanes, and the speed limit, and may be 300, 350, or 400, etc. The third threshold value may be 1 meter, 2 meters, 5 meters, or 10 meters, etc.
[0029] Step 103, identifying the cause of congestion based on the collected image of the road section to be intervened.
[0030] In the embodiment of the present application, when it is determined that the speeds of two or more vehicles in adjacent lanes are similar, and the distance between the two or more vehicles is less than the fourth threshold value, and the duration exceeds the fifth threshold value, it is determined that the road section is congested due to the parallel vehicles and the speed is lower than the set threshold. By identifying the collected image, if it is determined that there are two or more vehicles in the adjacent lanes, their speeds are similar, and the interval between the two or more vehicles is less than the set distance, such as less than 5 meters, it is determined that the vehicles in the different lanes are traveling in parallel. If there is a situation where overtaking fails or unconscious parallel driving occurs, this situation may cause congestion in the road section for highways with fewer lanes, and it is necessary to intervene in the relevant vehicles. In the embodiment of the present application, it is necessary to judge whether to intervene based on the driving situation. If it is caused by traffic jams in all lanes, it will be intervened according to other intervention methods of the embodiment of the present application. If the congestion is caused by parallel occupation of the road, it will be very necessary to intervene. Here, the duration of parallel driving needs to be considered. That is, if it is only an occasional situation, there is no need to intervene in driving behavior. If there is a long period of parallel occupation of the road, such as more than 10 minutes, the driving behavior of the relevant vehicles on the relevant road section should be intervened according to the current distribution of vehicles or organizations to avoid possible road congestion. Here, the fourth threshold can be 10 meters, 8 meters or 12 meters. The fifth threshold can be 10 minutes, 12 minutes or 15 minutes, etc.
[0031] As an implementation method, the method of identifying the cause of congestion based on collecting images of the road section to be intervened may also include: determining that when two or more vehicles in the same lane have similar speeds and the distance between the two or more vehicles is less than a sixth threshold, and the duration exceeds a seventh threshold, it is determined that the lane is congested due to the series of vehicles and the short distance between vehicles.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, when it is determined that the distance between vehicles in the passing vehicles is small and they keep driving in the same direction for a long time, intervention is also required. Especially on highways with fewer lanes, when the distance between vehicles in the same direction is close and they drive at the same speed, it may cause other vehicles to change lanes unfavorably, thus causing road congestion. In particular, the distance between multiple vehicles driving in the same direction is short, and it is easy for them to drive parallel with vehicles in other lanes. In this case, it is necessary to intervene in the driving behavior of vehicles driving in the same direction with a small distance to avoid their driving behavior in the same direction with a small distance for a long time.
[0033] In the embodiment of the present application, the fifth threshold may be 20 meters, 15 meters or 30 meters, etc., and the sixth threshold may be 10 minutes, 8 minutes, 5 minutes or 15 minutes.
[0034] Step 104, determining the intervention method according to the location information of the road section to be intervened and the cause of congestion.
[0035] In the embodiment of the present application, relevant vehicles in the same lane or adjacent lanes are identified, and reminder information is generated to prompt the vehicle to speed up and increase the distance between vehicles, or reminder information is generated to prompt the relevant vehicles to change lanes. According to the location information of the road section, the reminder information is output through the vehicle driving reminder sign or voice broadcast system in the direction of the vehicle and the nearest reminder sign or voice broadcast system. In the embodiment of the present application, the voice broadcast system set beside the highway can directly output voice prompt information to the relevant vehicles traveling in the same lane or parallel lane in the road section to be intervened, directly prompting them to change lanes or speed up. Specifically, according to the driving section and driving speed of the vehicle, the prompt information can be directly sent to the voice broadcast system in the direction of the vehicle, and the voice intervention information can be directly output to intervene in lane driving. Or through the output display screen on the vehicle's route, the relevant information prompting it to change lanes or speed up is output to the relevant vehicle.
[0036] In the embodiment of the present application, as an implementation method, according to the location information of the section to be intervened, it is determined whether there is a duty vehicle in the reverse lane, and the distance from the section to be intervened is less than the eighth threshold, and a prompt message is sent to the duty vehicle to prompt the relevant vehicle to change lanes, change the distance between vehicles or speed up, so that the duty vehicle intervenes in the relevant vehicle. Due to the particularity of the highway, when the section is congested, it is difficult for the rear vehicle to reach the congested section, especially the congested core section. At this time, the reverse vehicle or the reverse traffic agency can take the reverse arrival or turn on the U-turn device on the highway to reach the congested section as soon as possible. However, the current highway congestion method generally does not find congestion. When it is found, it is generally quite serious and difficult to intervene. However, the embodiment of the present application uses image recognition technology to determine the possible congested sections in advance, and through pre-intervention, the congestion is minimized, and the possible congestion is eliminated in the bud to avoid serious congestion. In addition, by taking advantage of the characteristics of highway road closures, we can intervene in possible congested sections as early as possible by reversing or calling on reverse agencies to avoid congestion.
[0037] Step 105, according to the intervention method of the road section to be intervened, each intervention method is notified to each local unit respectively, and each unit intervenes in the traffic mode of the expressway according to the intervention method.
[0038] In the embodiment of the present application, the unit can be a highway management structure or a local transportation department. The embodiment of the present application does not consider the administrative relationship between the transportation unit and the congested road section, but only considers the distance between the unit and the road section to be intervened, and the possible route and time for the unit to reach the road section to be intervened.
[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, it is determined that the speed of vehicles in all lanes of the road section to be intervened is lower than the ninth set threshold, and it is determined that an accident has occurred or congestion has been caused by lane narrowing; when it is determined that an accident has occurred, the cause of the accident is identified. Here, the ninth threshold can be 30Km / hour, 25Km / hour, etc. When it is determined that the speed of vehicles in all lanes is low, it is determined that an accident has occurred. At this time, it is necessary to collect relevant information about the accident vehicle. First, the severity of the accident is determined by automatic identification, and the accident situation is sent to the traffic system through a wireless communication antenna. According to the severity of the accident, the nearest agency or on-duty vehicle that can intervene in the traffic accident is determined, so that the traffic accident vehicle can be assisted to leave the scene as soon as possible in the most effective intervention method, and the rescue or ambulance vehicle arrives at the scene of the accident as soon as possible to avoid more serious consequences caused by the accident.
[0040] In an embodiment of the present application, it is determined whether there is an on-duty vehicle in the opposite lane or the same-direction lane, and the time it takes for the on-duty vehicle to arrive at the section to be intervened is determined; the location information of the agency in the section to be intervened is obtained, and the time it takes for the agency to arrive at the section to be intervened is determined; based on the cause of congestion and the time it takes for the on-duty vehicle and the agency to arrive at the section to be intervened, it is determined whether the agency will intervene or the on-duty vehicle will intervene, and the cause of the accident, the intervention method, and the information of the route of travel are sent to the agency or the on-duty vehicle to intervene in the section to be intervened. In an embodiment of the present application, the arrival time of the vehicle or agency when intervening in the section to be intervened can be determined through an electronic map such as a navigation map, so as to determine which vehicle or agency will intervene in the section to be intervened. When there are many sections to be intervened, the intervention method and intervention order can be sent to the same agency or on-duty vehicle to actively reduce the possibility of congestion on the highway.
[0041] The embodiment of the present application uses an image acquisition unit to collect images of vehicles traveling in all lanes in the monitored section to identify sections that may be congested and use them as sections to be intervened. For example, when the vehicle speed in certain lanes in certain sections is low, the vehicle density is high, or the distance between vehicles is small, it is considered that the highway section needs human intervention. The present application will determine the intervention method based on the cause of congestion, directly combine the distribution of units, whether the on-duty vehicle can turn around and intervene in the section to be intervened, etc., determine the intervention plan, and hand it over to the organization for congestion intervention, so as to minimize the congestion possibility of the highway. The present application automatically obtains the vehicle driving conditions of the relevant sections based on image recognition technology, and can automatically determine the intervention method based on the specific recognition results, which greatly reduces the possibility of congestion on the highway, improves its traffic efficiency, and resolves possible congestion at the initial stage, that is, it ensures the traffic efficiency of the highway and reduces the accident rate.
