Design and Application of Intelligent Transportation Multi-Source Data Collaboration Framework Based on Digital Twins

Abstract

The increasing urban traffic problems have made the transportation system require a large amount of data. Aiming at the current problems of data types redundancy and low coordination rate of intelligent transportation systems (ITS), this paper proposes an improved digital twin architecture applicable to ITS. Based on the improved digital twin architecture, a framework for dynamic and static data collaboration in ITS is constructed. For various collaboration methods, this paper specifically describes the collaboration methods and scopes, and designs the framework and interfaces for data mapping. Finally, the effectiveness of the framework is verified by case studies to mine the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of data, capture human travel characteristics, and visualize intersections using digital twins. This paper provides a new data fusion idea for digital twin systems in ITS, and the framework covers all data types in digital twin systems for cross-integration analysis.
