Aimsun Predict

Process real-time data to forecast upcoming traffic states: receive alerts for sudden anomalies or problems, and support proactive decisions.

Aimsun Predict

Process real-time data to forecast upcoming traffic states: receive alerts for sudden anomalies or problems, and support proactive decisions.

By their very nature, technologies that support intelligent transportation programs capture massive amounts of real-time data. 

Aimsun Predict uses techniques such as data cleaning, clustering, prediction, and incident detection to make sense of this real-time data, provide situational awareness and forecast future traffic trends.

In a tight timeframe (typically four to 10 weeks), Aimsun Predict can help cities achieve major goals for their transportation programs.

Aimsun Predict – Top benefits

Real-time situational awareness of network performance: increase network management capabilities

Dashboard with customized metrics and KPIs: visualize the most relevant outputs in your preferred format

Alerts for unusual network performance in real-time: increase responsiveness to incidents, including breaches of air quality thresholds

Incident detection alerts: greater responsiveness to non-recurrent events or incidents

Data propagation using AI: support event planning to increase customer satisfaction and optimize resourcing and management

Forecast of evolution: predicts future traffic trends to identify performance, safety or environmental issues to support infrastructure improvements and operational planning

Quantative network performance: support operational decisions

Aimsun Predict – Top use cases

  • Online data cleaning: homogenizing data as it comes in from permanent sensors and preparing it for real-time applications.
 
  • Network state estimation: extending measures coming in from sensors at specific locations to the entire road network.
 
  • Network state prediction: predicting the evolution of the traffic conditions over the next few hours.
 
  • Network performance alerts: monitoring the performance of the transportation system and alerting traffic operators if it diverges from the usual pattern.
 
  • Online incident detection: detecting sudden changes in traffic data that may be the symptom of an incident, e.g., a sharp drop in traffic flow outside peak hours might indicate congestion due to a crash or collision.
 
  • Incident risk prediction: detecting and reporting situations that correspond to high risk of incidents, always having access to weather and traffic data in real time.
 
  • Air quality prediction: predicting the evolution of air quality in the upcoming hours and days.
 
  • Situational awareness and monitoring: providing a web-based dashboard updated in real-time to monitor the state of the transportation system.
 
  • Parking occupancy prediction: predicting parking occupancy in different areas over the next hour.
 
  • Bus travel time prediction: predicting what time buses will arrive at stops.
  • Online data cleaning: homogenizing data as it comes in from permanent sensors and preparing it for real-time applications.

Case studies

AI-based traffic predictive systems and advanced incident detection

C-32 highway in Spain

Client: Abertis

Aim: a real-time traffic monitoring and forecasting solution to preempt incidents and test new technologies on the C-32, a primary highway in Catalonia, Spain.

  • The solution offers short- and mid-term predictions of flow and speed along each segment of the highway, fusing data from loop detectors, toll plazas and probe vehicles.
  • Traffic operators see alerts whenever the upcoming traffic conditions are similar to those that in the past led to incidents. They can therefore disseminate warnings and prevent the incidents.
  • The solution aids in assessing the collision risk on each highway segment by integrating critical information, such as the current flow and speed.
  • Monitoring and forecasting pollution levels includes calculation and prediction of vehicle emissions and speed recommendation.
