Using enviroCar data for cost attributes in routing applications
Master Thesis by Fabian von Bechen
Traffic is one of the biggest sources of CO2 emission in Germany. Research to reduce these emissions focuses on the development of low-emission drive systems or electric engines. Another possibility to avoid CO2 emissions is environmentally friendly routing. Fabian von Bechen took this approach in his Masters thesis “The use of floating car data for cost attributes in routing applications”.more >

enviroCar Analyse Service II
In the winter semester 2014/2015, students from the Hochschule Bochum developed an Analysis Service for the enviroCar project. The service calculates vehicle consumption values for track sections. A simple map matching method – which assigned the enviroCar data to road segments in a network – was used to calculate the consumption values. It was implemented using the free open source software solutions OpenStreetMap (OSM) street data, PostGIS, GeoServer and the enviroCar API to access the project’s consumption values.
A team of 5 students worked on a follow up project in the summer semester 2015. This project’s goal was to improve the existing calculation method. This entailed implementing a map matching method which fulfills the enviroCar Analyse Service‘s requirements. In addition, there was a need for a method to calculate undistorted energy consumption according to the time of day and the route driven.more >
