Abstract

The widespread use of GPS navigation and trip planning on web has aroused considerable interests in fast and scalable path query processing. Existing research has mainly focused on static route optimization where the traffic network is assumed to be stable. Nevertheless, in most cases, route planning is in presence of frequent updates to the traffic graph due to the dynamic nature of traffic network, and such updates always greatly affect the performance of route planning. Most existing methods, however, cannot efficiently support traffic aware route planning. In this chapter, we overview some existing approaches for dynamic transportation navigation, and then introduce an novel traffic aware route planning strategy, in which a set of effective techniques are employed to avoid both unnecessary calculations on huge graph and excessive re-calculations caused by traffic condition updates.
