Abstract
Nowadays, it is practically impossible to find a public place, where a person or object would not be under constant camera observation (mainly used to monitor traffic and to increase safety). Interpretation of such repositories, due to the huge amount of data, is not an easy task. Thus there is a need to introduce an intelligent processing systems that, through algorithmic image analysis, are able to detect e.g. situations worth of attention. The article presents methods of data acquisition from cameras mounted on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and their further analysis, which may be used to improve urban transportation systems and its sustainability. The worked out data concern the situation of urban transport in points of intersection of national and local roads. The analysis of the road traffic concerning local road restoration, causing road closure was achieved using image processing and analysis algorithms. The data was obtained from unmanned aerial vehicle flights in critical city locations. Result of this paper may be used in the future together with the data from existing intelligent transportation systems (a fusion of such data will be needed). The application of used methods will allow to extend and support the existing approaches to manage public and freight transport in cities.
