Solution Overview

Problem

Current traffic flow migration analysis technologies can only analyze the situation at a macro level, resulting in low utilization rates and accuracy issues due to reliance on positioning point data, which are prone to errors and abnormal communication.

Innovation Solution

The method involves obtaining and analyzing road network driving trajectories to determine both region-level and road-level traffic flow migration data, refining the data analysis dimension and improving accuracy by mapping vehicle trajectories to the road network.

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If positioning point data is used for traffic flow migration analysis, then the analysis can be performed, but the accuracy is reduced due to positioning errors and abnormal communication

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetraffic flow migration data accuracyVSAvoidpositioning data reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces road network data as an intermediary layer between positioning points and traffic flow analysis. By mapping positioning points to road network links and using spatial positional relationships with region boundaries, the system mediates the inaccurate positioning data through multiple layers of geometric relationships to produce more reliable traffic flow migration data.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If only macro-level region analysis is performed, then the analysis complexity is reduced, but the utilization rate of the analysis results is low

Engineering Contradiction:

Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the traffic flow migration analysis into two distinct levels: region-level (macro) analysis and road-level (micro) analysis. By dividing the analysis dimensions and providing different granularities of data, the system enables both high-level planning and detailed route optimization, significantly increasing the utilization rate of analysis results for different application scenarios.

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces road network data as an intermediary layer between positioning points and traffic flow analysis. By mapping positioning points to road network links and using spatial positional relationships with region boundaries, the system mediates the inaccurate positioning data through multiple layers of geometric relationships to produce more reliable traffic flow migration data.
